Amazon.com Product Description
For the person who needs access to their digital content away from home, at work, or online, while also allowing that same content to be shared in a secure setting, look no further than the Seagate Free Agent Pro Portable Hard Drive. This powerful portable hard drive delivers high-speed transfers, while also giving you the ability to share content with others safely and securely from a remote location or even online. 
Powerful storage device with a sleek new design. | 
This hip-looking hard drive takes up less room on your desk than an ordinary stapler. | 
Share your content with others safely and securely. | With up to 1 Terabyte and an ultra-slim design for a clutter-free desktop, your FreeAgent Pro external hard drive helps keep you safe from goof-ups by automatically saving new versions of your content that you can easily access if need be. And should something happen to your PC, you can roll back your Windows operating system, settings, and applications to a point in time when they ran smoother, like before a virus attack. Even though the system settings are taken back in time, updates to photos, music and critical data files are kept current. The Free Agent Pro is also ideal for those who want quick and painless transfers of their data from their computer to their drive, and from their drive to online accounts (such as Shutterfly or email). Simply plug it in to any power source and connect the USB cable to any computer, and you're ready to go. This hip-looking hard drive takes up less room on your desk than an ordinary stapler--1 x 3 x 5.2 inches (H x D x W)-- giving you more space for your other desktop items. Meanwhile, the hard drive only measures 7.5 x 1.4 x 6.3-inches (H x D x W) and it matches its small base. High Speed Synchronization and Sharing
The Free Agent Pro data mover automatically duplicates and moves selected content from your hard drive to multiple locations, such as copying your contact lists and emails to your iPod, or photos to a Shutterfly account. This feature also allows you to move your entire 'My Documents' folder to the Free Agent, or move it to your own online space where you (or others you choose) can access it from any browser 24/7. The Free Agent software also offers the feature of rolling back your system to better time if something should happen to your PC while automatic revisions of your content help keep you safe from goof-ups. Move files or other content with either USB 2.0/eSATA/FireWire 400 allowing a maximum transfer rate of 480Mb/sec for USB, and 3Gb/sec for eSATA, while delivering a high performance spindle speed of 7,200 RPM. The unit also comes with a sophisticated touch point power on/off switch. 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. A five-year warranty is also included, giving you complete peace of mind. Now with the ability to take your data with you anywhere you go, your digital content finally has room to breathe.

Great looking August 14, 2008
D. W. Moore (Portland, OR USA)
The big deal with this external drive is the triple interface.
It's refreshing to have an external drive that doesn't hurt your eyes due to overly-bright LEDs. You can turn the illumination off or have it indicate transfer activity -- at least in theory. I don't see any indication of activity.
I bought this to back up an Iomega 1TB NAS (network-attached storage) device. I was expecting to use Acronis True Image to backup the NAS onto the FreeAgent. No good. I'm using a combination of direct copying and the Roxio Backup My PC program.
I'm happy, so far, with the FreeAgent. It has a 5 year warranty, which was very important to me.
Great storage, backs up three PCs August 4, 2008

The 1TB drive is a great size to back up either several versions of a typical home PCs data, or more than one computer. The unusual configuration of the hardware has the power brick permanently attached to the end of the drive enclosure, which means that the unit can only be placed end up on a flat surface, the power brick acting as a stand. This was only a problem because the power brick/stand prevented the drive from being stowed in an external hard drive storage/transportation case.
I have used Seagate drives for many years both professionally and personally and have found them to be very reliable. The 5 year warranty is awesome, and standard on Seagates. I do a straight data to drive backup on my Vista 64 machine, and the software works on my XP machines, but its just a convenience since I just backup a ton of PhotoShop files and my Documents directory.
 5 Years of Guaranteed Triple Goodness July 29, 2008

Gotta love manufacturers who backup reliability claims with 5 year warranties. You are safe buying from Amazon, safe with Seagates 5 year warranty, future proofed with the triple interface. The interfaces covers all bases; eSATA (fastest if you have compatiblity), USB 2, Firewire 400 (IEEE 1394). Fast and quiet. Cool design. Solid build. Auto-shutoff works for my situation.
Eazy to install and easier to use July 29, 2008
