  • Fantastic warranty and support, Preinstalled software bundle adds significant value, Aluminum construction; attractive accents, Device is well built; no vibration or rattling
  • Provided USB cable is rather short, Carrying case should be offered with HDD, not the dock, Software may be too watered down for some power users
  • The idea of designing an effective external storage solution is not an easy one. The device must be convenient, it must be portable, it must be easy-to-use, and most importantly, it must be affordable. This last consideration can be the most difficult ...

  • Slim, lightweight design; foolproof operation; drive-management software includes backup and encryption functions
  • Short USB cable makes it inconvenient to use with some desktops; file encryption isn’t hardware-based
  • The Seagate FreeAgent Go is a top-value buy among portable hard drives, with a great form factor and bundled backup software. ...

  • Abstract:  The FreeAgent Go is the latest in Seagate’s stylish FreeAgent series of external hard drives. The line is designed for road warriors, but will work just fine in a crowded desk situation, where the extra space taken up by the Go’s larger siblings can’t ...

  • Stylish and affordable add-on hard drive includes software that doesnt tax the brain
  • A handy dock will run you an extra $30, and the drives packaging is tough to open
  • Back up your files and photos without a lot of hassle

  • Sleek design, 10 color choices, Models up to 500GB, Performance
  • No Creedo software, Dock not included
  • When Im traveling I dont want to have to take a lot of things with me. My Dell XPS M1210 only has a 60GB hard drive so I need more space. I like that I can bring the FreeAgent Go along with me and it does not take up a lot of space in my bag. It is ...

  • Good performance, Attractive design with brushed metal finish, Automatic backup, encryption, and synchronization software
  • Separate Windows and Mac versions, Windows version lacks FireWire port
  • Overall, the 320GB Seagate FreeAgent Go is one of the better portable hard drives we’ve tested. For $149, you’re getting a drive that offers style, very good performance, and easy-to-use software.
