$229.99 at Best Buy (was $299.99, save 23%)

The Seagate Expansion, despite its massive 20TB capacity, remains compact, similar in size to other desktop hard drives. It boasts a USB 3.0 interface providing transfer speeds around 100MB/s – standard for traditional HDDs. The drive also includes data recovery software and seamlessly works with both Windows and Mac systems.

While SSDs are popular, traditional hard drives remain superior for long-term archiving due to their significantly lower cost. At $11.50/TB, this hard drive drastically undercuts the $50+/TB price of comparable SSDs. Furthermore, HDDs offer much higher maximum capacities; consumer SSDs typically max out at 8TB, a fraction of this drive's 20TB capacity. Crucially, data recovery from a failed HDD is generally easier than from a failed SSD, despite comparable lifespans.
