Update: Amazon is now offering the Seagate Expansion 10TB External Hard Drive for $189.99 shipped. Originally $260, it more typically sells for $220 these days and is now at the lowest price we can find. This is within $10 of the all-time we have only tracked once before.
Amazon is now offering the Seagate Expansion 18TB External Hard Drive for $339 shipped. Regularly $500 like it typically fetches at Best Buy where it is now marked down to $350, this is the lowest price we can find. This model has sold for between $350 and $380 across 2022, is now at the lowest price we have tracked this year, and is matching the Amazon all-time low. It might not carry a solid-state drive, but 18TB of that would cost you thousands. This model delivers USB 3.0 connectivity with plenty of storage for years to come. It works with Windows and Mac machines out of the box and you can reformat it to run it as a Time Machine backup drive. More details below.

We also went hands-on with this model recently and everything you need to know is waiting right here.
