You either love the FreeAgent Pros looks - or you hate them. What everyone can agree on is that the drive is not only well capacious and quick, but also - since these are not unique qualities - equipped with a solid array of connection options, inclu...

The FreeAgent Pros large capacity, multiple connectivity options, fast performance and unique design arent quite enough to justify its high price. If it came with a full version of Memos Autobackup backup software, then wed rate it higher.

The size of the computer has shrunk from needing separate rooms for the storage and processors to the size of a wrist watch. While some parts have had to shrink, the size of some parts have had to increase, though not in a physical sense; rather an i...
There is simply no denying it, external storage is here and it’s not going to go anywhere soon. The days of having 12+ drives in a single case are over. Not only does it take a huge amount of connectors that the PC doesn’t have, but also adds...

We need storage and we need lots of it. Between all those songs, pictures, videos, and other multimedia content, there’s a good chance that your internal hard drive is starting to get pretty packed with files. Even if you’re not getting close to full...
The Seagate FreeAgent Pro 1TB is a handsome piece of hardware. Encased in an aluminum and plastic monolithic enclosure, it certainly won’t be an eyesore on your computer desk. However, the FreeAgent Pro is certainly more than just a pretty face. All...

Seagates FreeAgent Pro 750GB drive ($340 direct) stands out on two fronts: its innovative software pack-ins and its physical design. Its software is a solid group of programs for the user who doesnt already have a backup solution (that is, most of...
Compatible with eSATA. "Future-proofed" modular external connector. Fast transfer speeds. Good software suite. Software connects to online storage.
Although stylish, design is less than practical in some situations. External connector swaps are wonky. No FireWire 800. Backup software not Mac-compatible. Uses mini USB cable. No eSATA cable included.
The Seagate FreeAgent Pro 750GB is a big drive, and the software is well thought out and well designed, but its unusual case design will not appeal to everyone...

The warranty is another key selling point on the FreeAgent Pro. While you could easily add a Seagate drive (with its own 5 year warranty) to any old enclosure, Seagate has bundled the whole thing together for you, thrown in some useful software, and th...

While the eSATA performance should be better, the 750GB FreeAgent Pro performed reasonably well via USB 2.0 and Firewire. Considering that you have a massive amount of storage available, faster transfer rates would be desirable. If you actually want to...
