The 4TB FireCuda is the biggest Seagate portable SSD — a Gen 2x2 RGB drive sized for entire game-library overflow. The 5-year warranty and included Rescue plan are real value-adds at this capacity.

The 2TB FireCuda Gaming SSD is Seagate's answer to the WD Black P50 — a Gen 2x2 portable marketed at console gamers with a 2000 MB/s rated speed and 5-year warranty. The RGB center strip lights up when in use; an included app can sync it with other Razer Chroma gear.

The 500GB One Touch is Seagate's entry-level portable SSD — typically the cheapest brand-name 1050-class Gen 2 drive at retail. Speeds are real-world faster than rated for short transfers; the catch is that the SLC cache is tiny.
