Seagate has three lines of external SSDs in its range: GameDrive drives are designed for game consoles, Expansion drives are designed for people who are looking for a compact and roomy SSD, and the tiny One Touch was invented for fans of beautiful things. Due to the non-trivial approach to design and the use of non-traditional materials, One Touch drives constantly participate in all kinds of "beauty contests", and Seagate itself prefers to call these drives "accessories", emphasizing the importance of design.


The same One Touch STJE500400 managed to get a bunch of awards, among which a statuette occupies a special place at the prestigious RedDot Awards competition. It's small and light, with unusual upholstery in soft-touch canvas that looks like it's straight out of a Parisian fashion show. Considering that the fabric can have a wide variety of textures (black, grey, camouflage, etc.), the One Touch STJE500400 drive will look equally appropriate in both a man's backpack and a woman's handbag.

In pursuit of external beauty, they did not forget about the technical nuances. Seagate skimps on high-quality NAND memory and smart memory controllers, so One Touch drives are on par with conventional internal SSDs that connect via SATA in most scenarios. And thanks to exFAT formatting, they are recognized out of the box by all popular operating systems - from Windows and macOS to Linux and Android. What is most interesting, despite the high quality of workmanship and emphasis on appearance, One Touch drives are often at the level or even cheaper than other external SSDs.
