This statement product exemplifies advanced storage R&D uniting with world-class industrial design to create the slimmest way to carry 500GB of data. The Seagate Seven enclosure is made entirely of steel, not only to achieve the thinnest external drive, but also for a premium appearance inspired by a bare drive, the essence of storage. The superior experience is extended to the included USB 3.0 cable, a stylish, premium braided design instead of the standard cable found with most external drives. Since the drive is bus powered, meaning it draws power directly from the USB port, and does not require an external power supply, the Seagate Seven is perfect for those on-the-go situations. Push the limits of possible with the thinnest portable drive, Seagate Seven. ## Features - World's thinnest 500GB portable hard drive - Sleek and strong steel enclosure - Fast transfers with USB 3.0 - Automatic backup software for computers and mobile devices - No external power supply needed, grab it and go ## Technical Specifications | Specification | Value | |---------------|-------| | Hard Drive | 500 GB External | | Number of USB 3.0 Ports | 1 | | Brand | Seagate | | Series | Seven | | Item model number | STDZ500400 | | Hardware Platform | PC;Mac | | Item Weight | 3.17 ounces | | Product Dimensions | 0.26 x 3.23 x 4.82 inches | | Item Dimensions LxWxH | 0.26 x 3.23 x 4.82 inches | | Color | Silver | | Flash Memory Size | 500 GB | | Hard Drive Interface | USB 1.1 | | Manufacturer | Seagate | | ASIN | B00PZZZNDE | | Is Discontinued By Manufacturer | No | | Date First Available | January 5, 2015 | ## Images ![Seagate Seven 500GB Portable External Hard Drive (Silver) STDZ500400 - Image 1](https://m.media-amazon.com/images/I/51x1N2uiU0L.jpg) ![Seagate Seven 500GB Portable External Hard Drive (Silver) STDZ500400 - Image 2](https://m.media-amazon.com/images/I/61TrhNnbSnL.jpg) ![Seagate Seven 500GB Portable External Hard Drive (Silver) STDZ500400 - Image 3](https://m.media-amazon.com/images/I/41eewG9PqeL.jpg) ![Seagate Seven 500GB Portable External Hard Drive (Silver) STDZ500400 - Image 4](https://m.media-amazon.com/images/I/516n-T4VFDL.jpg) ![Seagate Seven 500GB Portable External Hard Drive (Silver) STDZ500400 - Image 5](https://m.media-amazon.com/images/I/51h8EYLYyjL.jpg) ## Available Options This product comes in different **Capacity** options. ## Customer Reviews ### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ 5.0 out of 5 stars Works perfectly and saves room in my safe. *by A***R on Reviewed in the United States on July 20, 2015* Of course, you wouldn't buy this to back-up your entire desktop computer. You might buy this to impress your friends by carrying it in your shirt pocket, but the reason I bought it is because it saves space in my office safe.It also works perfectly. I was extremely surprised at how quick it transfers large files. I didn't use the automated back-up software, but it's plug-and-play with Windows 7 64-bit home version. I just plugged in the cable and the drive appears in Explorer, to read or write as you want. ### ⭐⭐⭐⭐ 4.0 out of 5 stars More a Luxury Than a Necessity. *by R***B on Reviewed in the United States on January 26, 2015* What I love:1) 7MM Sleek, Steel Enclosure (Hardened Aluminum).2) Three Year Warranty.3) Self-Powering.4) Light Weight - 3.2 Ounces.5) Pre-Formatted for Mac or Windows.The products' magnetic closure box comes with the 7MM drive, the 12" USB 3.0 braided cord and a small instruction pamphlet inside. The drive powers-on without an extra power supply.I got this for the "cool factor" and because I'm a person who likes innovation and is a Seagate fan. The hardened aluminum drive, as far as drives go, is beautiful. It does attract fingerprints, however. It's thin and I originally thought to get this "naked" instead of storing in a case. After owning this a few days, I feel this needs a storage case. While not drop-testing for fear of breaking (will let CNET do that), it's thin and could be fragile if in the bottom of a briefcase, knapsack or bag. The three year warranty helps here and gives peace of mind.The drive is pre-formatted using a proprietary "exFAT" file system that can be used with both Mac and Windows computers without requiring an software installation step. Below is a link to a good article on exFAT (and other formatting options) for those interested in learning more:http://arstechnica.com/information-technology/2013/06/review-is-microsofts-new-data-sharing-system-a-cross-platform-saviorThe drive does included with the Seagate Dashboard Application. The Seagate Dashboard Application has three backup functions: 1) PC Backup, 2) Social Media Backup and 3) Mobile Backup. I didn't use the Seagate Dashboard Software to perform backups on either platform so cannot comment as to it's performance. The backup software is reported to be user-friendly on both platforms, but the social media backup is reported to be limited. The drive is plug-and-play so I just used it natively dragging and dropping files with ease.USB 3.0 works great with both my 2012 MacBook Pro and a 2014 Dell Inspiron Windows 8.1 PC. The product is backwards compatible to USB 2.0 which I tested on a 2010 Sony Laptop that has a USB 2.0 Port and runs Windows 7. I feel the 12" braided cord is too short and wish Seagate didn't skimp on length. Other manufactures make shorter cords; however, I feel an "Anniversary" item (close to $100 at the time of this review) should not shortchange the user with a short cord. 500GB for $100 is currently a lot to spend given the competition when a slightly thicker Seagate 2TB drive is currently between $89 and $99 on Amazon. See Product: Seagate Backup Plus Slim 2TB Portable External Hard Drive with Mobile Device Backup USB 3.0 STDR2000103. I'm not deducting a star for this because I knew the low comparative storage space before purchase and just wanted a luxury drive.My native copy speeds (not using the Seagate software) averaged: 98MBps for read and 110MBps for write on Mac and 100MBps for read and 110MBps for write. Not much of a difference across platforms. I used usbflashspeed, CrystalDiskMark and Hdtune.com software to test. Overkill, I understand, but I really wanted to get a true sense of speed here given the high price tag. I didn't test USB 2.0 speeds.If I had to purchase again, I'd wait several months and see if the price decreases and feel $69 - 79 would be a fair price given space is limited. I like the "cool' and "wow" this drive has, but it's more a luxury than necessity compared to the competition - Seagate as its own competition here, included. If the cord were longer and the drive had more space, I'd rate five stars. I'll update this review as time progresses and the drive travels from place to place.Should you get this? If form is more important than function in your eyes, then yes! ### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ 5.0 out of 5 stars Great Drive - Excellent Build Quality *by A***O on Reviewed in the United States on February 17, 2015* I was looking for a portable drive that was fast, preferably Thunderbolt.But most of the drives on the market are clunky, plastic-y and hideous.I also wanted something that was slim (need to conserve space in my camera/laptop bag).Then this thing got announced so I preordered it. I was very satisfied with it's build quality. Performance isn't bad either.It's also nice to know that (since it is a conventional drive) it has a 3 year warranty.They should build more drives like this. They don't have to be as thin, just made of the same quality materials.Solid construction. Nice and heavy (in a good way). Feels almost like a car part. As if it were an ECU. --- ## Why Shop on Desertcart? - πŸ›’ **Trusted by 1.3+ Million Shoppers** β€” Serving international shoppers since 2016 - 🌍 **Shop Globally** β€” Access 737+ million products across 21 categories - πŸ’° **No Hidden Fees** β€” All customs, duties, and taxes included in the price - πŸ”„ **15-Day Free Returns** β€” Hassle-free returns (30 days for PRO members) - πŸ”’ **Secure Payments** β€” Trusted payment options with buyer protection - ⭐ **TrustPilot Rated 4.5/5** β€” Based on 8,000+ happy customer reviews **Shop now:** [https://www.desertcart.kg/products/11597742-seagate-seven-500gb-portable-external-hard-drive-silver-stdz500400](https://www.desertcart.kg/products/11597742-seagate-seven-500gb-portable-external-hard-drive-silver-stdz500400) --- *Product available on Desertcart Kyrgyzstan* *Store origin: KG* *Last updated: 2026-05-25*
