This Best Buy deal on a Seagate Expansion 20TB USB 3.0 Desktop Hard Drive is a steal, even better than many Black Friday offers. For a limited time, you can snag this massive storage solution for just $229.99, an incredible $11.50 per terabyte.
### Seagate Expansion 20TB USB 3.0 Desktop Hard Drive
$229.99 at Best Buy (was $299.99, save 23%)
The Seagate Expansion, despite its 20TB capacity, maintains a compact size comparable to other desktop hard drives. It boasts a USB 3.0 interface offering transfer speeds around 100MB/s, typical for a traditional HDD. The drive also includes data recovery software and seamlessly integrates with both Windows and macOS.
While SSDs are popular, traditional hard drives remain superior for long-term archiving. Hard drives offer significantly lower costs; this drive's $11.50/TB price far undercuts SSDs, which typically cost at least $50/TB. Furthermore, hard drives offer much higher maximum capacities, surpassing the typical 8TB limit of consumer SSDs. Crucially, data recovery from a failed HDD is generally easier than from a failed SSD.
