Seagate Backup Plus Hub (8TB) review: Massive, fast external hard drive

So why on earth, in this day of uber-fast portable SSDs and fast-enough, readily portable 2.5-inch hard drives, would anyone want to purchase a 3.5-inch external hard drive such as Seagate’s Backup Plus Hub? You sacrifice some portability, but the upsides are significant: nearly three times the capacity and faster sustained throughput than 2.5-inch models.Seagate’s Backup Plus Hub comes in flavors from 4TB to 14TB. The 8TB version I tested is currently about $217 on Amazon. By comparison, portable 2.5-inch hard drives, while equally affordable, are currently limited to 5TB. Portable SSDs max out at 8TB, but only if you’re willing to shell out a cool $2000. Ouch! To read this article in full, please click here https://www.pcworld.com/article/3621389/seagate-backup-plus-hub-8tb-review.html#tk.rss_all
