I honestly thought it was a typo when I saw the price of this 24TB Seagate Barracuda HDD - and it got me questioning everything

I've never seen a hard drive like this at such a low price. Right now the Seagate Barracuda 24TB internal HDD is $245 (was $300) at Newegg.

That's a $55 saving right there for one of the largest hard disk drives I've seen on sale.

I've been tracking deals for decades, and never in that time have I see a HDD of this capacity priced as low as this. I genuinely thought it must've been a mistake, or a refurbished drive (it isn't), or that I'd misread the price. But no, it really is $245 for 24TB.

Seagate Barracuda 24TB HDD: was $300 now $245 at Newegg

Just buy it while stocks last - hard disk drives of this capacity and at this price won't last long and 24TB just over $0.10 per GB is a must-have.

This Seagate Barracuda drive is a 3.5-inch one, one of the best hard drives on the market. It uses the proven CMR technology and delivers speeds of up to 190MB/s with a 7200RPM rotational speed and 512MB cache. It also features Seagate’s free DiscWizard software tool which helps novices migrate and clone data from old hard drives seamlessly.

The deal price of the drive is at a 18% discount off the usual RRP and at just $10.21 per TB, significantly less than the competition. Cheaper than when I covered it back in June 2025. To gauge how good that deal is, Newegg sells a 20TB Seagate drive for $72 more so hurry up, the special pricing for the drive means that stocks are likely to disappear fast.

It's worth noting that Amazon sells it for $400 so, this is a huge bargain from Newegg. Although I did see the 24TB desktop HDD version of this drive is available for $300 (was $330) at Amazon.

The internal drive doesn’t come with any data recovery services - useful when your drive stops working either by accident or because of hardware failure. Just remember that 24TB is a lot of data to be lost if something goes wrong. I strongly recommend using a cloud backup service like Backblaze to mitigate the risk of losing all your data, due to theft, failure or something else.

Unlike its more expensive peers within Seagate, this one has only a two-year warranty. You cannot buy an extended warranty at Newegg sadly.
