Seagate Portable 4TB USB-A 3.2 Gen 1 External Storage Drive

The Seagate STGX4000400 is a portable external hard drive that gives you an immediate 4TB of extra room for the files you do not want crowding your computer or living only in the cloud. It is built for people who move between home, office, classroom, or studio and need their data to travel just as easily.

Connection happens through a USB-A port that supports USB 3.2 Gen 1 speeds, so large videos, raw photos, or full system backups transfer quickly at up to 5 Gb/s. If you plug the drive into an older USB 2.0 port it still works, letting you share files with legacy desktops or laptops without hunting for adapters.

The enclosure has a design that feels lightweight and compact, making it simple to slide into a backpack pocket or keep on a small desk without adding clutter. Power comes directly from the USB cable, which means there is no separate power brick to pack or lose.

Setup is no more complicated than plugging the drive in. Windows and macOS recognize it automatically, so you can start dragging files over in seconds without installing extra software. That convenience is valuable for students who need quick backups before class, content creators who shuttle footage between editing stations, or anyone who wants a straightforward way to archive family photos.

Seagate also includes Rescue Data Recovery Services. If an unexpected problem ever puts your files at risk, you have professional help on hand, adding an extra layer of confidence to every backup you make.
