The Seagate Expansion houses a single 20TB drive, maintaining a standard desktop hard drive footprint. It boasts a USB 3.0 interface providing transfer speeds around 100MB/s – typical for a traditional HDD. Recovery software is included, along with automatic recognition for both Windows and macOS systems.

While SSDs are popular, traditional hard drives remain superior for long-term storage due to significantly lower costs. At $11.50/TB, this HDD drastically undercuts SSDs, which typically cost at least $50/TB. HDDs also offer far greater maximum capacities; consumer SSDs generally max out at 8TB, dwarfed by this drive's 20TB capacity. Critically, data recovery from a failed HDD is generally easier than from a failed SSD, despite comparable lifespans.
