welcome to my final unboxing of seagate's new and improved series of
external 2 and 1/2 in storage drives so
I showed you guys The Backup Plus and the Backup Plus for Mac well this is the
expansion portable drive and what makes it expansion is that it is add-on
storage for your PC so as you may or may not have figured out so far this is the
nonb Backup Plus version so it doesn't have the Facebook backup that the backup
plus one has as well as potentially um
more social media backup features in the future like YouTube and whatever else
this one is just your basic expansion
more storage and that's about it the instructions are fairly
straightforward get the things and plug them in okay limited warranty it has a
one-ear warranty and those are the terms and
they they have actually updated their shell so they're using a different type
of enclosure just a plastic enclosure it's got like kind of a angular sort of
look to it pretty bog standard as far as
uh USB 3 2 and 1/2 in enclosures go this is a 500 gig version although it is
available in a variety of capacities it comes with a usb3 cable now unlike some
of their existing or like uh unlike some of their previous products there's no
modular interface on this one this is a USB 3 Drive comes with a usb3 TOA
chipset inside it there's no uh there's no like conversion kit like we've seen
on their glex products for example I don't think I actually have one lying
around in here unfortunately but if you guys have seen almost any of my videos
where I do benchmarks you'll know what I'm talking about cuz I use it for my steam drive and that way I can use
whatever interface I want this is just USB 3 this is just basic and it just
looks a little bit something like that so thank you for checking out my unboxing and first look at seates
