Seagate expansion 8tb external hard drive is a true storage powerhouse. The drive's sleek and sturdy design adds a touch of quirkiness to your desk setup. No issues after 5 or 6 years, great capacity at 5tbs.
Cons
While it backs up my files, my pc freezes. Would not read or write after only 3.
Highlights
Quality
Thanks to the two free monthly games that come with the ps+ subscription, my internal hard drive filled up super fast.

Like a trusted old friend, it's ready to help from the get-go.
Competitiveness
Very nice xbox or ps5 storage device
I've had my 3tb drive used exclusively for my xbox.
I still was about what i expected from a low-end 8tb seagate archive hdd.
Look no further than the seagate expansion 8tb desktop external hard drive.
