Latest 2TB Seagate hard drive plummets to just over £50

Perfect for PS4, Xbox One and PC storage.

Never delete a game again with a Seagate expansion drive, the 2TB model of which has plummeted to its lowest price ever of £53.99 at Amazon - not too shabby for the 2019 edition. You won't find it any cheaper elsewhere.

Like a few other models, the Seagate drives are optimised for consoles, meaning you just need to plug in and you're ready to go - no finicky installs required. It works more or less immediately on plugging in. Even better, it has no need for a mains plug, as it draws power via USB cable.

Not only does this beefy drive give you space for an additional 50 games (or 20 Red Dead Redemption 2 installs) on your PlayStation, Xbox or PC, it is also deceptively tiny - being essentially hand-sized. This makes it ideal for carting around friend's houses. It's covered by a two-year warranty. Form an orderly queue folks!

If the Seagate model is not the one for you, give our PlayStation 4 external hard drive or Xbox One external hard drive guides a go - there's something in there for everyone.
