Seagate 2TB Beskar Ingot RGB Mandalorian External HDD Review

There’s no shortage of external hard drives on the market, that’s for sure. However, while many of them are generic, I love what Seagate has been doing to keep things fresh. They’ve got a huge range of unique designs that really stand out from the crowd. Thankfully, this is no mere novelty drive, as it’s part of their FireCuda series, one of the best consumer storage ranges out there. The drives in their various themes are available in External HDD, M.2 SSD, and SATA SSD form factors to suit your own needs. I’m still a fan of the Halo drives they did last year, but this year, it’s all about one of the hottest topics in the Star Wars franchise. I am of course talking about The Mandalorian.

Seagate 2TB Beskar Ingot HDD

No, this drive isn’t really made out of a Beskar ingot (I mean… obviously!), actually, the external shell isn’t even made of metal. It’s actually more of a hard-wearing rubber/plastic material that’s lighter and durable to keep the internal hard drive safe. However, it’s been given a funky design to make it look like an Ingot of Beskar. You may wonder why even bother? But if you use an external HDD like me, it’s out on show quite a lot, always dotted around my desk, various computers, laptops, etc, so having something that looks nice is certainly no bad thing. It’s still a decent drive underneath though, offering USB 3.2 Gen 1 speeds with no need for additional power cables, so it’s plug-and-play on a wide range of compatible devices.
