Seagate introduces world's largest capacity 5TB portable hard drive

External HDDs comes in storage capacities with 500GB, 1TB, 2TB and 4TB but Seagate has launched a portable hard drive that comes with massive 5TB storage.

Dubbed Backup Plus Portable 5TB drive, Seagate calls it the world’s largest capacity portable external storage drive. The new storage solution was made possible thanks to the new BarraCuda internal drive featuring 2.5-inch 1TB platter technology, announced last month.

The 5TB drive offers data transfer speeds of up to 120MB/s and can store up to 600 hours of HD video. It supports both macOS (with an NTFS driver) and Windows with USB 3.0 connectivity. It is encased in a 20.5mm-thick aluminum case.

The Seagate Backup Plus 5TB drive is priced at an MSRP of $189.99 (Rs. 12,870) and will be available later this month in black, silver, red and blue colors.
