    Excellent First Shopping Experience

    I just came to the U.S. for a stay, and during my travels I took a lot of photos and videos. After a few months, my phone storage was no longer enough. Prices in the U.S. are much higher than in my country—many products cost 50% more, sometimes even double. That’s why I was really glad to find this external hard drive priced about the same as back home. With the discount, it was even cheaper, and it’s also from a well-known brand I trust. This was my first time shopping on Best Buy, and it turned out to be a wonderful experience. Thank you!

    Works as advertised with slight hiccups when downloading games, I have it hooked up to my PS5 and most PS5 titles games work, but some I still have to download on my PS5’s internal hard drive because this can’t format it correctly. Keep that in mind before purchase but otherwise good speeds and good price.

    I have used Seagate for extra storage over the last ten years. This most recent 4TB external drive is once again an excellent product for the price!

    Does What it Says - Stores a Ton of Data

    Of course the 4TB isn't quite 4TB (it's like 3.8TB or something because of whatever software's already on there), but that's still more than plenty for what I need. I can keep it plugged in, store all my games, and record videos whenever I feel like it. Very handy to have around

    External hard drives go hard

    Someday this thing will fail, and I will be very sad. Does anyone else think it's amazing that we can just have 4TB hard drives? Does anyone else remember when 100GB was a wild, expensive concept?

    It has compact, reliable, and perfect for everyday backups. The Seagate Portable 4TB offers huge storage at a fair price, ideal for media libraries. For rugged travel, the LaCie Rugged SSD delivers durability with faster transfer speeds
