Seagate is well-regarded for producing some of the finest accessories for PC and Xbox, and this 2TB portable hard drive is one of the company's most popular. It is easy to set up and use, features decent fast transfer speeds over USB 3.0, and has over two terabytes of storage space to fit in your favorite videogames, movies, music, and any other data you can think of.

However, Xbox users should keep in mind that Xbox Series X|S games won't be able to run directly from the external hard drive.

The Seagate 2TB portable hard drive is enjoying a healthy discount offering at multiple retailers for Cyber Monday, bringing it down from $70.99 to $59.99. This means that this 2TB external hard drive is currently sitting at a similar price to the 1TB version, which usually has an MSRP of $57.99 at most retailers.

With such a valuable deal on offer, this is the perfect opportunity to grab one of the best external hard drives for Xbox and add more of the best Xbox games to your library. The same applies to PC gamers looking to install more of the best PC games without taking up space in their internal hard drive.
