- Price: $229.99 (was $299.99 - 23% off) at Best Buy
This 20TB drive is surprisingly compact, no larger than other desktop hard drives. It boasts a USB 3.0 interface with transfer speeds around 100MB/s, typical for a traditional HDD. Seagate includes recovery software and it's compatible with both Windows and Mac systems.
While SSDs are popular, traditional hard drives remain the best option for long-term, high-capacity storage. HDDs offer significantly lower costs (this drive is less than half the price per TB of comparable SSDs), and much higher maximum capacities (consumer SSDs generally max out at 8TB). Crucially, data recovery from a failed HDD is also generally easier than from a failed SSD.
