Seagate Technology plc, a world leader in storage solutions, today announced the launch of Seagate Innov8, the world's first USB-powered desktop hard drive. Seagate Innov8 features innovation from the inside out with its industry-leading 8 TB capacity, trend-setting Ignition Boost Technology and expressive design.
There is still an abundance of consumer electronics that require an external power supply, placing a premium on power outlets. With advancements in USB 3.1 technology, major manufacturers like Apple are beginning to rely on one connection-type for everything. Today, with the introduction of Seagate's new Ignition Boost Technology, Innov8 is the world's first 8 TB desktop hard drive that does not need to be plugged into a power outlet. Similar to a standard car requiring a battery kick to start the engine, Ignition Boost together with USB 3.1 enables Innov8 to thrive off bus power. No dedicated power source or adapter required.
What's more, Innov8 features industry-leading capacity with Seagate's 8 TB HDD. Now users simply plug in the reversible USB-C cable and have access to a lifetime of data - including more than two million songs, four million photos and eight hundred HD Movies.
Art Imitates Engineering
Innov8, a recipient of this year's Red Dot design award, follows Seagate Seven-a 2015 Red Dot design award winner-by embodying the durability and physique of the hard drive inside. Innov8's premium, well-balanced aluminum enclosure and design means users can horizontally or vertically place it on the desktop as they prefer. The industrial design excellence of Innov8-as with Seagate Seven-was done in partnership with Huge-Design, a firm recognized by some of the industry's most influential consumer electronics brands GoPro, HP, and Nike.
"Creating an extreme design that visually celebrates Seagate's world-class engineering capabilities was a key objective of this engagement," said Bill Webb, Huge-Design. "Innov8 builds on Seven's success to once again convey the functional beauty of an internal hard drive, but with enough capacity to help ensure seemingly endless space to store the memories we all love. The drive represents a bold yet practical solution for today's consumer, looking to preserve a wealth of memories in the most compelling way possible."
Software Suite
Innov8 includes Seagate Dashboard software, which offers users either one-click on-demand or customizable, scheduled backups for their devices. Further, Seagate Innov8 includes 200 GB of Microsoft OneDrive cloud storage and Lyve software compatibility, so users can back up, access and share their favorite files from any device or location.
Pricing and Availability
Seagate Innov8 will be available in April for US $349.
