Seagate 16TB external HDD drops to $449.99, offering rare value

By PulseAugur Editorial · [1 sources] ·

Newegg is offering a 16TB Seagate Expansion Desktop external hard drive for $449.99, a $100 discount that brings the price to approximately $0.02 per gigabyte. This deal is notable as high-capacity hard drive prices have significantly increased, making this a comparatively good value. The drive connects via USB 3.0 and is formatted with exFAT for broad compatibility, though users should be aware that removing the drive from its enclosure to use it internally will void the warranty.
