Seagate debuts trio of new storage products at CES 2015
Seagate
has descended on the Consumer Electronics Show with a trio of new storage
solutions covering multiple market segments.
It
starts with Seagate’s new 500GB Wireless drive which,
as the name suggests, allows users to expand the storage capacity of their
smartphone or tablet wirelessly. Battery life checks in at an impressive nine
hours although its use of USB 2.0 means transfers won’t exactly be speedy in
nature.
It’ll
come in five different colors – green, blue, gray, red and white – starting
early next month priced at $130.
In
the event you value a compact footprint over wireless accessibility, the
aptly-named Seven drive may
be more up your alley. Billed as the world’s slimmest portable hard drive at
just 7mm thick, it tips the scale at just 0.2 pounds and comes enclosed in an
all-steel enclosure.
The
500GB Seven connects via USB 3.0 and even comes with a “premium” braided cable.
Best yet, there’s no additional power cable necessary as it draws power from
the host device’s USB port. Expect to pay just under $100 for the Seven when it
debuts later this month.
Where
the two aforementioned drives are primarily aimed at multimedia consumption and
sharing on the go, the third – the Seagate Personal Cloud –
caters more towards those looking for a home-based solution for the entire
family.
