Review: Great price, easy to transport, even easier to use - I have been using an old 1TB drive for a few years now and felt it was time to upgrade. I could not believe how cheap this 2TB drive was and thought it must be cheaply made, I was very much mistaken. The drive is fantastic it comes with its own software on it but i never had to install anything, I simple plugged it in with the usb cable that came with it and boom it was straight there on my This PC page. I transferred over alot of material from the old TB and the speed it did it was great even tho my pc doesnt have usb 3 capability. I can only imagine how fast it would be at usb 3 speeds. Also the drive looks amazing, sleek and shiny black with a nice cube pattern on the top. The size is at least four times smaller than my old TB and this holds twice as much data. The usb cable isnt mega long which was no problem for me as i have the drive sitting on top of my tower so i have ample extra lead. The size makes it great for transporting and since it doesnt need to be charged as it gets its power from the PC you dont have to carry a plug charger around with you if you want to bring movies or data to another location. I have had no faults or any complaints with this product and maybe even buy a 4GB drive if I ever fill this one up. The drive also worked instantly didnt need time to charge up i just plugged it in and the blue light came on and i was good to go. All in all a great buy and at such a great price, well worth it Review: Great little drives. Fast, with huge capacity. - I bought two of these drives to collate all the data I had spanning multiple HDD units. One drive contains the data; the other contains a mirror of that data. So far, I am very pleased with both reliability and performance of these drives. The case is all plastic, with a port for the USB 3.0 cable and a light to show the drive is in use. Simple, but it does the job. It is also nice that it only occupies a single USB port. It would probably benefit from some stick-on rubber feet as it does have a tendency to slide around on hard surfaces, being very lightweight. My Dell 5567 does recognise the device as USB 3.0 and there is a notable speed increase over USB 2.0. That said, I've mostly used it in USB 2.0 mode (on my old PC) and speed hasn't been an issue for me, even when imaging / restoring my OS partitions. Not sure how good the drive will be in the long run, but so far I'm very pleased. For the money, I think they represent good value. ## Features - Twice the storage capacity of comparably-sized portable drives - Perfect add-on storage for your PC or Xbox One - Drag and drop file saving, right out of the box - Powered by USB, no mains plug required - 2 year warranty ## Technical Specifications | Specification | Value | |---------------|-------| | ASIN | B017KE8OG0 | | Best Sellers Rank | 25,227 in Computers & Accessories ( See Top 100 in Computers & Accessories ) 101 in External Hard Drives | | Box Contents | USB 3.0 cable (45.7 cm) | | Brand | Seagate | | Brand Name | Seagate | | Cache Memory Installed Size | 32 | | Color | Portable (2016 Edition) | | Compatible Devices | Desktop, Gaming Console | | Compatible Video Game Console Models | Microsoft Xbox One, Sony PlayStation 4 | | Connectivity technology | USB | | Customer Package Type | Standard packaging | | Customer Reviews | 4.7 out of 5 stars 64,531 Reviews | | Data Transfer Rate | 625 Megabytes Per Second | | Digital Storage Capacity | 4 TB | | Digital storage capacity | 4 TB | | EU Spare Part Availability Duration | 1 Years | | Enclosure Material | Mechanical Hard Drive | | Form Factor | 2.5-inch | | Global Trade Identification Number | 00763649071922, 00782941965647, 04923113121775, 07636490070471 | | Hard Disk Description | Mechanical Hard Disk | | Hard Disk Form Factor | 2.5 Inches | | Hard Disk Interface | USB 3.0 | | Hard disk form factor | 2.5 Inches | | Hard disk interface | USB 3.0 | | Hard-Drive Size | 4 TB | | Hardware Connectivity | USB 3.0 | | Hardware Platform | PC | | Installation Type | External Hard Drive | | Item Dimensions L x W x Thickness | 29.7L x 20.3W x 5.3Th centimetres | | Item Type Name | Seagate Expansion Portable | | Item Weight | 236 g | | Manufacturer | Seagate | | Manufacturer Part Number | STEA4000400 | | Media Speed | 100 MB/s | | Model Name | STEA4000400 | | Model Number | STEA4000400 | | Network Connectivity Technology | USB | | Number of Items | 1 | | Product Features | USB powered | | Product Warranty | 1 year | | Read Speed | 100 Megabytes Per Second | | Special feature | USB powered | | Specific Uses For Product | Gaming, Personal | | UPC | 763649071922 782941965647 761243070471 759218875039 667649334219 739197890735 | | Unit Count | 1.0 count | ## Product Details - **Brand:** Seagate - **Colour:** Portable (2016 Edition) - **Compatible devices:** Desktop, Gaming Console - **Connectivity technology:** USB - **Digital storage capacity:** 4 TB - **Hard disk description:** Mechanical Hard Disk - **Hard disk form factor:** 2.5 Inches - **Hard disk interface:** USB 3.0 - **Installation type:** External Hard Drive - **Special feature:** USB powered ## Images ![Expansion 4 TB 2.5-Inch USB 3.0 Portable External Hard Drive for PC and Xbox One, 4TB - Image 1](https://m.media-amazon.com/images/I/71IfINcpq3L.jpg) ![Expansion 4 TB 2.5-Inch USB 3.0 Portable External Hard Drive for PC and Xbox One, 4TB - Image 2](https://m.media-amazon.com/images/I/81N0Td2xJnL.jpg) ![Expansion 4 TB 2.5-Inch USB 3.0 Portable External Hard Drive for PC and Xbox One, 4TB - Image 3](https://m.media-amazon.com/images/I/71ooJg-JtAL.jpg) ## Available Options This product comes in different **Size, Style** options. ## Questions & Answers **Q: how noisy is this harddrive if it needs to be on 24/7?** A: I don’t know what the others are on about I have 3 of these and all next to one another and it’s absolute rubbish that they make “so much noise”, in fact they are quite the opposite. Yes you get the typical “spinning” noise when the hard drive is in use but nothing too disturbing like the sound of pots and pans being bashed about. Literally some people over exaggerate noise like wth I mean you must have one dodgy hard drive the way you make it out to be when all 3 of mine are quieter than a sleeping hamster. Hope that helps solve your question. **Q: Can this be used on both PC and Mac?** A: I would recommend exFAT over FAT32 or NTFS; while NTFS can be written to on OS X it has never been well supported, and FAT32 has significant limitations. Even ExFAT isn't ideal, but it can handle bigger files, copy more efficiently and is supported on Mac, Linux and Windows as standard. You can format drives as ExFat in OS X's Disk Utility. **Q: Does this product come with a USB cable, or do you have to buy the cable separately?** A: Yes it comes with the usb cable **Q: Does it work for Mac laptop owners?** A: Out of the box it won't but if u format it will read.How to Erase an internal or external drive that is 500 GB or larger and has already been setup with NTFSOpen the Disk Utility.Select the drive.Click Partition.Under Volume Scheme, choose 1 Partition.Choose Options.Choose Apple Partition Map.Click OK.Click Apply.Click the Partition button.The drive will Erase.

The internal drive has started to fail, and I needed to get stuff off quickly. I used this drive to actually run the Mac OS on, based on a 1.1TB time machine imagine that I had taken a few days before. I have to say, I am pretty impressed The drive itself comes well packaged in a neat box, with only the required amount of materials (no wastage here). Inside the packaging is the drive itself, which has a nice look and feel to it, and a proprietary USB cable that provides both power and data transfer in 1. Keep this safe, its an unusual cable so not sure how easy it would be to replace. I connected the drive, and set about formatting it to the right volume type to be a bootable MAC HD. Formatting was done quickly and I was away - able to install the OS onto the drive from a time machine backup, and have been running off it since. The drive itself is not silent, but neither is it noisy - you know its working by the blinking blue light on the top of the drive - but that's about it. I plan to velcro it to the back of my Mac so that its up and out of the way Size wise its about 25% bigger than a deck of cards, but also about 25% slimmer. The drive gets warm through use, but not hot and nothing to worry about. Read and Write speeds seem pretty good, and i am able to make use of nearly all of the 2TB of storage. I plan to use the drive for extra storage on my Xbox One once I have finished using it to run the Mac OS. Really pleased, and would recommend a good drive at a great price. ## Frequently Bought Together - Seagate Expansion Portable 4TB External Hard Drive Desktop HDD – USB 3.0 for PC Laptop (STEA4000400) - Lacdo Hard Drive Carrying Case for Seagate Portable/Seagate One Touch/Game Drive for PS5 / Ultra Touch Portable External Hard Drive HDD 1TB 2TB 4TB 5TB USB 3.0 Shockproof Travel Bag, Black - Seagate Portable 2TB External Hard Drive HDD — USB 3.0 for PC, Mac, PlayStation, & Xbox -1-Year Rescue Service (STGX2000400) --- ## Why Shop on Desertcart? - 🛒 **Trusted by 1.3+ Million Shoppers** — Serving international shoppers since 2016 - 🌍 **Shop Globally** — Access 737+ million products across 21 categories - 💰 **No Hidden Fees** — All customs, duties, and taxes included in the price - 🔄 **15-Day Free Returns** — Hassle-free returns (30 days for PRO members) - 🔒 **Secure Payments** — Trusted payment options with buyer protection - ⭐ **TrustPilot Rated 4.5/5** — Based on 8,000+ happy customer reviews **Shop now:** [https://www.desertcart.tn/products/47886058-expansion-4-tb-2-5-inch-usb-3-0-portable](https://www.desertcart.tn/products/47886058-expansion-4-tb-2-5-inch-usb-3-0-portable) --- *Product available on Desertcart Tunisia* *Store origin: TN* *Last updated: 2026-05-30*
