Really guys? Because the average video game is 2GB, right&#8230;&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p style=\"outline-style: none; outline-width: 0px;\">A key addition to the company&#8217;s recently introduced GoFlex&nbsp; family of hard drives, the 3TB GoFlex Desk external drive couples high capacity with the flexibility to adapt the drive&#8217;s USB 2.0 interface to a USB 3.0 or FireWire 800 connection to meet varying performance and transfer speed needs.<\/p>\n<p style=\"outline-style: none; outline-width: 0px;\">Consumers can create, store and access content from either a Windows or Mac OS X computer on the GoFlex Desk external drive, thanks to an included NTFS driver for Mac.<\/p>\n<p style=\"outline-style: none; outline-width: 0px;\">&#8220;Consumer capacity demands are quickly out-pacing the needs of business as people continue to collect high-definition videos, photos and music,&#8221; said Dave Mosley, Seagate executive vice president of Sales, Marketing and Product Line Management.<\/p>\n<p style=\"outline-style: none; outline-width: 0px;\">&#8220;Seagate has a tradition of designing products that break into new storage frontiers to meet customer requirements and the 3TB GoFlex &trade; Desk external drive is no exception&ndash;delivering the highest-capacity storage solution available today.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p style=\"outline-style: none; outline-width: 0px;\">The 3TB GoFlex Desk external drive with USB 2.0 adapter is priced at $249.99 (R1,919). Although, we are guessing at a local price of around R2500 &#8211; that&#8217;s being optimistic.&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Can I get a Hooahh!<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":161,"featured_media":0,"comment_status":"open","ping_status":"closed","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"_sma_x_autopost_status":"idle","_sma_x_autopost_error":"","_sma_x_post_id":"","_sma_x_attempts":0,"footnotes":""},"categories":[3],"tags":[],"class_list":["post-6575","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","hentry","category-pc"],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/mygaming.co.za\/news\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/6575","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/mygaming.co.za\/news\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/mygaming.co.za\/news\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/mygaming.co.za\/news\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/161"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/mygaming.co.za\/news\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=6575"}],"version-history":[{"count":0,"href":"https:\/\/mygaming.co.za\/news\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/6575\/revisions"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/mygaming.co.za\/news\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=6575"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/mygaming.co.za\/news\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=6575"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/mygaming.co.za\/news\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=6575"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
