Seagate Launches New Backup Plus Hub For All Your Digital Needs


Seagate Technology plc (NASDAQ:STX), a world leader in storage solutions, today announced its Seagate® Backup Plus Hub is now available in Australia.

Based on Seagate’s award-winning Backup Plus Desktop, Seagate Backup Plus Hub is the world’s first external storage hub to provide a complete solution for your digital life whilst playing as a desktop organiser too. This sleek drive boasts up to 8TB capacity and it includes two integrated USB 3.0 ports for connecting and charging your devices.  

For typical digital data-loving computer users, this drive provides up to 8TB capacity to better manage data rather than juggle it across multiple USBs or devices. Its intelligent two-port USB hub makes Backup Plus Hub a charging station. The integrated USB slots allow users to charge two USB-connected devices, such as phones, tablets, cameras, Fitbit, etc. at any time, even if their computer is not powered on. Users can also easily connect their devices directly to the Backup Plus Hub for data transfers and access two USB-connected devices just like if they were plugged directly into the computer. With the new Backup Plus Hub, Android and iOS device users are able to easily backup photos and videos, and free up their mobile device memory at any time.

Seagate Backup Plus Hub includes the Seagate Dashboard software with two years 200GB free Microsoft OneDrive® cloud storage so users can back up, access and share their favorite files from any device or location.

Pricing and Availability:

The new product is now available in Australia at leading retailers. The RRP for 4TB Backup Plus Hub is AU$229 and AU$419.00 for 8TB Backup Plus Hub.
