Seagate's 24TB External Hard Drive Is Mega Memory at a Mini Price, Memorial Day Deal Only
Remember when the first terabyte-sized external hard drives hit the market and blew everyone's minds with how huge they were? How quaint. They were also as ginormously expensive as we thought their capacity was. Fast forward to current times, and there's a 24TB drive from storage giant Seagate available at Amazon for just $280, which is a considerably lower per-terabyte price than those 1TB drives of old. The Seagate Expansion 24TB External Hard Drive is smaller, faster, and more reliable, and it works equally well with PC and Mac computers. See at Amazon So Much Storage The Seagate Expansion 24TB External Hard Drive isn't pocket-sized, but at just 3 inches tall and a bit under 3 pounds, it is most definitely portable. The day will almost certainly come when there are pocket-sized 24TB drives, but until then, this is about as compact as they come. The USB 3.0 interface of the Seagate lets you move data on or off the drive at a blistering-fast 4800 MB/s, which you'll be more than thankful for if you're doing a full-computer backup for the first time, or getting everything off one machine to move onto a new one. Creators and photo and video enthusiasts will deeply appreciate the enormous 24TB capacity of the drive, as well as the speed with which it writes those huge files. See at Amazon Backup for the Backup The Seagate Expansion 24TB External Hard Drive is pure plug-and-play, able to come out of the box and immediately become your trusted backup drive. Mac users will have to reformat the drive in order to use it with Apple's time Machine, but that's an exceptionally easy and fast procedure. Seagate external hard drives have a well-earned reputation for reliability, and the 250,000-plus Amazon reviewers who give this model an average 4.6 star review are solid proof. But, as they say, things happen, and in that event Seagate's Rescue Data Services are at the ready. This service is included in the price of the drive, and should your hard drive become corrupted or suffer physical damage, you can ship it to Seagate and their expert techs will either repair the drive or salvage the data and move it onto a new device to send back to you. You might be surprised at just how many files you have to back up, or maybe you have several smaller backup drives lying around and you're looking for a way to consolidate them. The Seagate Expansion 24TB External Hard Drive is a perfect solution, and the $280 price running right now at Amazon is unbeatable. See at Amazon

Add Storage And Back Up Your New iPhone With PNY's Duo Link USB-C Dual Flash Drive
Have you recently upgraded your iPhone? If you have and you are concerned about running out of storage space, there is a way to store more stuff and back up your phone without paying the kind of money Apple charges to buy an iPhone with extra storage. A few years back, storage brand produced a USB storage solution that had a choice of USB-A and Lightning connectors along with Duo Link smartphone app that could be used to back up an iPhone or store media like photos, video and music to a PNY USB Duo Link. If you have one the old Lightning Duo Link drives, you may have discovered that it won't work with the newer USB-C iPhones, which are the models since iPhone 15. However, the good news is that PNY also makes a USB-C version of its Duo Link memory stick that works with the new Apple iPhones. The new PNY Duo Link USB 3.2 Type-C Dual flash drive is available in 128GB and 256GB capacities, with prices starting at $20.99 for 128GB and $29.99 for the 256GB version. That's considerably less than Apple charges for an extra slug of memory when you are buying an iPhone. The PNY Duo Link USB Type-C works automatically once the PNY app has been installed on an iPhone. Just plug the drive into the USB port and the app will automatically launch and offer to back up the iPhone, transfer media or whatever else needs to be stored externally. The app also functions in the other direction for moving files from the Duo Link to an iPhone. The whole process is straightforward and works well for freeing up space for taking more photos or videos. The Duo Link isn't fast enough to stream videos directly to it like some SSDs, but it is an easy way to back up important data and files as well as creating more space. Once the files are transferred to the USB drive, it's then easy to transfer the data to a Mac or PC for long term archiving and storage, freeing up more space on the PNY USB drive for future use. The drive has two interfaces, the USB-C one and a USB-A on the other end of the drive for use with an older device. Clearly, the most convenient way of handling storage problems on an iPhone is to buy the largest capacity you can afford, but that is expensive and not always necessary because an external storage device like the PNY Duo Link USB-C for decanting files may be all you need. The PNY Duo Link also works with Android phones and tablets, so it's not just for owners of newer iPhones, but now that Apple has dropped its Lightning port, this memory stick is the one you need new iPhones or iPad Pros. The PNY Duo Link USB 3.2 Type-C Dual Flash Drive is available now from PNY and other outlets in 64GB, 128GB and 256GB capacities. The price for the 128GB model is $20.99 and a 256GB drive costs $29.99. Capacities: 64GB / 128GB / 256GB. Interface 1: USB 3.2 Gen 1 Type-C Interface 2: USB 3.2 Gen 1 Type-A Max read speed: Up to 200MB/s. Compatibility: USB 3.2 Gen 1/USB 3.0 equipped host devices, backwards compatible with USB 2.0. Device compatibility: Type-C equipped mobile devices such as smartphones & tablets and PC and Mac laptops/desktop computers. Operating system compatibility: Windows 7 / Windows 8 / Windows 10 / Windows 11 / macOS 10.0 and later, Android 5.0 and iOS 18 or later.
