Seagate Backup Plus 4TB USB 3.0 External HDD (Red)

The Seagate STHP4000403 is a 4TB external hard drive that gives you quick, reliable backup and plenty of room for photos, videos, documents, and creative projects. It connects through a USB 3.0 port, so large transfers finish sooner while staying backward-compatible with older USB ports when needed.

Out of the box the drive is formatted as exFAT, which means Windows and macOS computers recognize it immediately. Setup is as simple as plugging in the included micro-USB to USB-A cable; the drive pulls all the power it needs from your laptop or desktop, so there is no separate adapter to pack or lose.

Seagate includes its Toolkit software, letting you create on-demand backups, set automatic schedules, or mirror specific folders for real-time protection. A one-year Mylio Create subscription helps you organize photos across all your devices, and a two-month Adobe Creative Cloud Photography Plan trial adds Photoshop and Lightroom for editing on the go.

The Backup Plus is a practical solution for photographers who need to off-load images in the field, students who shuttle projects between home and campus, or anyone who wants to keep a secure copy of important files without relying solely on cloud services. The compact drive slips easily into a backpack or travel pouch, and the red finish makes it easy to spot in a shared workspace.
