“We are thrilled to announce the latest release in our ongoing
collaboration with Lucasfilm, bringing three fresh and iconic
designs to gamers and Star Wars fans,” said Jeff Fochtman, senior
vice president of business and marketing at Seagate Technology.
“From the designs to the functionality of the drives, this release
brings a force to the battle stations of Star Wars
enthusiasts.”
Joining the family of Star Wars Beskar™ Ingot Drives, the
Special Edition FireCuda External Hard Drives are available with
three unique aesthetics that represent each legendary character:
the cool demeanor of legendary bounty hunter, Boba Fett, the joyful
look of Grogu, and the honorable and unwavering purpose of the
Mandalorian. The drives come equipped with customizable RGB LED
lighting1 and each design features a default custom character light
out-of-the-box: a flashy red for Boba Fett, a glowing blue for
Grogu, and a bold blue for the Mandalorian. With built-in and
customizable lighting options, all three of the drives enable
gamers and Star Wars enthusiasts to homage a galaxy far, far away
at home.
With 2TB of capacity, the FireCuda External Hard Drives (HDD)
work with PC, Mac, PlayStation, and Xbox so tech enthusiasts can
accumulate and store media, files, and games, regardless of
operating system2. Designed with USB 3.2 Gen 1 connection for
universal compatibility and quick transfer speeds, and USB
bus-powered, the lightweight drives are the perfect match for Star
Wars fans looking for eye-catching storage while on the go. The
special edition drives include Seagate’s five-year limited warranty
and three-years of Rescue Data Recovery Services™ so users have
peace of mind in whatever their adventures may bring them.
The new collectibles are available for purchase today so fans
can create their own, complete Star Wars gaming galaxy as they
celebrate May the 4th – Star Wars Day. Each drive is available for
$109.99 (2TB).
