About this product

It's pre-formatted with NTFS, making it ready for PC use, and is also compatible with Mac systems.

It features a USB-A 3.0 host connection and a Micro-USB (USB 3.0) input, designed for reliable data backup and expansion.
Our take
If you're looking for a dependable, high-capacity external drive for your desktop setup, this Seagate Expansion 4TB unit is a strong contender. The 3.5-inch form factor means it's a stationary drive that needs an AC adapter, so it's not truly portable, but that's typical for desktop HDDs. The USB 3.0 connectivity offers good speeds for transferring large files, which is a definite plus. Being pre-formatted with NTFS is convenient for Windows users, though Mac users will need to reformat. At 2.59 lbs, it's not light, but it’s built for stable desktop operation.
