Therefore, you are paying approximately 23% more for the new drive; however, the Seagate Backup Plus Portable 5TB does boast of premium features like being the first portable drive to have the 2.5-inch 5TB BarraCuda internal drive. Like its 4TB predecessor, the new portable HDD retains its svelte profile with a thickness of 20.5mm. The drive is supported on both PCs and Macs, and it’s bundled with Seagate Dashboard utility for your backup requirements.
