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.
What's in the Box
FreeAgent Pro data mover drive, Free Agent software (preloaded) and electronic documentation, USB2.0/eSATA/FireWire 400 interfaces, USB 2.0 cable, FireWire cable, AC power adapter, and a quick start guide.

 Careful with a failing backyp. November 24, 2008

I purchased this item in case any of my 3 HD failed. To my surprise the backup failed! Gave me an error message that I need to replace it. None of the HD have failed ;)
 Very nice package November 23, 2008
Photograph backup
This hard drive was purchased to back up all our photography files, as after having owned it for about a month now has worked very well. This is the second Seagate external hard drive I have purchased now and would not think twice about purchasing a third in the future. The nicest thing about it is its modern looking casing. For the price great hard drive.
 Do not knock this over- buyer beware! November 18, 2008

This is an attractive drive that works great....that is until it gets knocked over. It is easily knocked over based on its design, and they dont tell you in the literature that your data will then be unrecoverable! Their customer service is also unreliable in their answers. So you'll get a new seagate if still under warranty, but your data is toast. We even sent to a super expensive (estimate of $3,000) data recovery place and they couldnt even get it back for us. SAVE YOUR MONEY AND BUY TWO 80GB external hard drives and make two backups of your data and keep in separate places- learn from our mistake!
Seagate Free Agent Pro 1TB Firewire November 16, 2008

The Seagate Freeagent Pro 1TB unit was delivered before expected and performs as advertised using Firewire in a 3 unit daisy chain configuration. I use it exclusively as a backup disk for HD video and RAW format digital pictures (25,000+). These type of files take alot of space so 1TB may not last too long. The backup software that comes with the unit, Memeo AutoBackup, performs perfectly for the described configuration. The backup software is configured to automatically backup multiple locations where it automatically moves a copy when new files are added or a change is made to an existing file. I keep up to two copies of changes but if you desire, that can be increased. By the way, if you make adjustments to a RAW file, this counts as a change. Speed seems adequate but is more or less transparent after the initial copy because all backup operations are fully automatic. I highly recommend this drive.
Does its job quickly and efficiently, but included software a no-go on 64-bit OS. November 13, 2008

I bought this device to back up my growing media collection, and the 1 TB capacity and FireWire 400 capability add to the attractiveness of this solution. Backups (unfortunately via the awful Windows Backup) are fast enough, and restores were expedient and complete. The richly featured backup software included with the product bombs on 64-bit Vista, and Seagate support confirms this as a problem with no current workaround. Too bad, but I'll manage without - will look for a freeware solution soon.
