Easy-to-use desktop expansion
Seagate Expansion Desktop is plug-and-play external storage for PC, Mac, and Chromebook desks. Capacities through 28 TB, USB 3.0 transfers, and drag-and-drop file saving — no software required for everyday use. Unlike the portable Expansion line, this drive needs the included power adapter.
Room for the big libraries
Park backups, media archives, and project folders beside the PC. USB 3.0 keeps large copies moving, and many PlayStation and Xbox setups can use it for library expansion where external HDDs are supported.
