This external USB HDD (Hard Drive) from Seagate has good specs (and with the companies past known reputation to be reliable) but in my one case a fluke I hope and not a trend, my drive failed on me completely (DEAD SPINOUT/ CLICKER). Having no shock to the unit whatsoever and loosing me a lot of valuable data hard to recover or impossible, I have lost my confidence in this makers products until proven otherwise. They replaced it but I am not so comfortable putting any of my data on that drive, call me superstitious.
When I got a new PC it has Windows 7 OS. The old External Hard drive didn't want to work with the new Windows 7 OS. So I started serching for a new one. I found this new Seagate External Hard Drive. After I found this one & read all the info about it & with it being brand new with a great price I figured I couldn't go wrong. And I didn't. This new Seagate is working GREAT I would recommend this to anyone.
The Hard drive was easy to hook-up, easy to use. The 7500rpm speed was a great feature when backing up all my video files. The built-in software is fairly easy to use as well. I guess if I had only one thing to gripe about, it would be the fact that I didn't check to see the file format it used. It is pre-formatted with the NTFS file set. So I couldn't back-up my PS3 hard drive to it. I may look into formatting a FAT32 partition on the drive. So not really the drives fault, just didn't do my homework.
This is the second Seagate external hard drive I've purchased; I really like them. They're easy to use and they're a great way to backup your favorite/important files. My first Seagate drive is quite a few years old, and I've never had any trouble with it.
They are very useful external drives. But even if this capacity is 1.5 TB. In this case: the Seagate FreeAgent Desk ST315005FDA2E1-RK 1.5 TB USB Hard Drive, which has two Firewire ports and one USB, and work is excellent both for average users as high-end, I mean to office users or landlords, high-end designers, photographers and animators, not to mention the users who love the video and film. My only personal complaint is that no reason because these discs do not make them longer so you do not need additional power source and external. Why not manufacture it so that for full operation is sufficient and connect via USB or Firewire to the PC.
