And with technological advancements such as the so-called Internet of Things fast taking shape it is only more imperative that users carefully pick their methods of stowing away their work-related data and precious memories.
“What’s interesting about storage is that it depends on the data produced and the data produced is expanding exponentially all the time” Glenn Rogers head of sales and marketing for Europe the Middle East and Africa at Seagate told Khaleej Times at a recent event in Dubai in which it revealed its new company logo and launched a new array of products.
The Cupertino California-headquartered maker of storage devices showcased the Seagate Seven the world’s thinnest portable hard drive at only seven millimetres and the 500GB Seagate Wireless portable drive as well as solutions such as the Seagate Personal Cloud that enable users to access their data wherever they are.

All these products Rogers says will definitely appeal to consumers in the UAE known to look for only the best in devices they want to use.
“As consumers change they are maturing; more young people especially are coming to the market anyone who has memories to save” he pointed out.
On Seagate’s plans for the UAE Rogers said that they have “many plans” and that new products are carefully being developed in order to cater to the market and reach out to even more customers.

“The more data we produce the more we need to store it” he said. “And we’re here to provide that.”
