Manufacturer's Description

Seagate FreeAgent Pro External 750GB Hard Drive

The FreeAgent Pro is a 750GB external hard drive. The FreeAgent Pro has the ability to move data to where you need it most. Automatically send a project to a flash drive, copy audio to your MP3 player, upload photos, and put your entire "My Documents" folder on your website for access anytime, anywhere. The Free Agent Pro software and drive formatting works only with Windows, but the drive can easily be reformatted for a Mac with OS X's Disk Utility. This portable hard drive is also compatible with Windows Vista (as well as Windows XP and Windows 2000), allowing you to backup your content regardless of operating system upgrades.

Duration of ownership: 2 Months

Strengths: Ease of use,ready backup,great looks

Weaknesses:None so far

Overall Evaluation: I purchased the 259 gig model,I was mainly interested in backing up files on a new computer,having Vista.The Vista lacks capabilities of backing sufficienly to hard drive. I am a home user,don't save huge volumes of movies,etc. I find this to be an exellent choice for my needs,& paid under $100. for it!!! Can carry the data from one computer to another easily.

Duration of ownership: 2 Weeks

Strengths: huge capacity, esata connection, seagate 5 year warranty

Weaknesses:no firewire in this version, automatic backup software is only a trial software for 30 days, must stand upright, no esata cable

Overall Evaluation: so far i've really liked using this hard drive. i've backed up all of my hard drives (2x 320gb drives) and using the esata connection i was able to do it very quickly. it runs quiet. i installed the backup software, but with only a 30 day trial, it's not even worth using i do wish there was a power "switch" instead of this weird "button"

Duration of ownership: 2 Months

Strengths: Quiet & 5 Yr warranty

Weaknesses:Difficult to locate the hidden power button

Overall Evaluation: I compared between Western Digital & Seagate and finally bought this because of the 5 year warranty and good reviews. I am using this for the last 2 month. Satisfied so far. But I still haven't mastered the art of using the Power off button.

Review:

Seagate FreeAgent Pro

An eye-catching design, coupled with a useful and well-rounded software suite, differentiates the FreeAgent Pro from other desktop hard drives.

"Sleek" is not a typical descriptor for a desktop hard drive. It is the first word, however, that comes to mind for Seagate's FreeAgent Pro, one of four models in the company's new FreeAgent line of external hard drives, units that range in size from 12GB to 750GB. I looked at a shipping version of the FreeAgent Pro, the biggest drive, and was left impressed by both its aesthetics and its operation.
