I ordered this item online after seeing it in a local store. I wanted to have a large drive to back up my digital photos and other files. The drive took less than one minute to connect and I immediately was able to transfer files from my computer t read full review | report as inappropriate
I really like this HDD (Seagate FreeAgent Pro 500 GB USB / eSATA External Hard Drive ST305004FPA1E2-RK). I agonized over this or the WD equivalent and buying a pre-made external HDD (as apposed to just a case and internal HDD combo). In the end,... read full review | report as inappropriate
I loved the price, the ease of installation but it cannot work on my pc when it is connected after shut down and restarted. On the seagate site you can find thetroubleshooting tips but to no avail. Everytime I boot up it freezes my machine. Had I kn read full review | report as inappropriate
The market for external hard drives has ballooned in the last few years with every man and his dog now realising that having all your files on an easy to use portable device is rather convenient. To meet this demand there have been several... read full review | report as inappropriate

I have had no problem with the device. The manufacturer's instructions for mounting were simple and relatively painless: I had it up and working inside five minutes. The drive is quiet and has so far had no problems. A much easier and cheaper way of read full review | report as inappropriate
The quality is a bit shaky. Bought one and started to see bad sectors within 3 weeks. Had a replacement, and noticed the drive would fail to mount from time to time and had to reboot the computer a few times to make the drive show up(maybe... read full review | report as inappropriate
Bought a WD5000AAJS and a WD5000AAKS at almost the same time. Within 3 weeks, the AAKS started to have bad sectors after disk scan, and since it was still under warranty, I had it replaced. Now its been 3 months since then, and another disk scan... read full review | report as inappropriate
3 00MB PER SECOND Serial ATA transfer rates are all the rage these days. Cutting-edge core logic like Intel's ICH7 south bridge chips and NVIDIA's nForce4 family support the faster I/O interface, and hard drives are beginning to follow suit?not... read full review | report as inappropriate

I use it with Microsoft Vista's complete system backup and it works very well. Since Vista has all of the backup functionality built-in, I don't use the software that came with the product. You'll need to order a SATA cable if it's your desire to go read full review | report as inappropriate
Overall this is a great product. Only thing is you cant just turn it off via the power switch, you have to use the 'button manager' software to shut it down. The drive works great but I want to be able to use the on and off switch when I want it on o read full review | report as inappropriate

This SATA II 750GB Sata II drive is inexpensive and easy to install. Windows XP Pro recognized it instantly. One thing to note as many already know is that you should order a slightly larger hard drive then you need as you lose a good 50Gb+... read full review | report as inappropriate
Western Digital has avoided jumping into the desktop hard drive capacity game. It makes some sense, since many users never fill up even 250GB hard drives. But as digital photography, amateur video editing, and the massive storage requirements of mode read full review | report as inappropriate

I have been getting tired of just average drives. This is true Segate quality I remember. Rock solid... (actually heavy), very cool design and one really fun package to open. Really. The entire packaging, manuals and design are very cool. And so is read full review | report as inappropriate
Hi, I gave this a 5 because the product price included the online backup, but that service is useless. I recommend not to buy the PRO version but buy the normal version instead. I bought the PRO 500 GB, so I could back up my files online and have loc read full review | report as inappropriate
Let me preface this by saying: I've only owned this drive for about a day. Therefore I can't fairly review its performance. This review only covers my out-of-the-box issues with it. I might give a performance review once I've owned it for over... read full review | report as inappropriate
At first glance, the Seagate FreeAgent Pro looks like a NAS drive: all of the online literature talks about accessing your data anywhere. It turns out that it's a desktop drive bundled with a backup application that makes it easy to copy your data... read full review | report as inappropriate

I've been using this drive for about a month now. The reviews I read online before my purchase gave high marks to the drive but mentioned that the bundled (Windows) back up utility is limited. Since I bought this drive for my mac, that was not a... read full review | report as inappropriate
I bought the drive based on the CNET review, but clearly should have read the user comments. As noted by someone else, the built in backup utility (Maxtor Manager) can not be setup to backup files outside of My Documents and certain other C drive fo read full review | report as inappropriate
