About this product
This Seagate One Touch portable external hard drive provides 5TB of storage capacity within a compact 2.5-inch form factor. It features a USB 3.0 interface for quick connectivity and operates at a rotation speed of 7200 RPM, supporting both Mac and PC systems. Designed for backup purposes, the black drive is USB port powered, ensuring convenience without the need for an external adapter. Its compact nature makes it easy to carry.
Our take
The Seagate One Touch 5TB drive is a strong contender for anyone needing a large, portable backup solution. The 5TB capacity is excellent for a portable unit, and the 7200 RPM rotation speed is a nice step up from the more common 5400 RPM drives, implying better performance for an HDD. It's compatible with both Mac and PC, which adds to its versatility, and being USB-powered is a huge convenience for on-the-go use. While described as a 'Solid State Hard Drive' in one spec, the primary listing as an HDD and 7200 RPM strongly suggest it's a traditional mechanical drive, which means it won't have SSD speeds but offers good capacity for the price.
