Pros

The seagate expansion 8tb is a true storage powerhouse. The drive's sleek and sturdy design adds a touch of quirkiness to your desk.

The setup process is a breeze. Simply connect the hard drive to your computer using the usb 3. Port. Super easy to hook up to the console and super easy to set up as primary storage.

Shipping

This product arrived on time and in great condition.

Competitiveness

Seagate has been more durable than other manufacturers.

However, there isn't much choice for backups except for raids or tape backup, which are both pretty expensive.
