This review is from: Seagate FreeAgent Go for Mac 320 GB USB 2.0/FireWire 800 Portable External Hard Drive ST903203FJA105-RK (Silver) (Personal Computers)
Just bought this HD to back up my MacBook Pro. Hooks up in seconds, Mac recognizes it immediately and you can just drag and drop files to store or backup. I use Time Machine with this to back up my whole system and it works flawlessly. I used to have Apple's Time Capsule but after a while I didn't like the slow wireless connection to back up files and it would constantly stop backups because the connections would occasionally drop. I use the Firewire 800 connection with this HD and it backed up my whole system in less than an hour. Great size also if you want to take it anywhere with you. Included cables cover all scenarios such as Firewire 800, Firewire 400 & USB. Also has a very convenient leather carrying case so the HD doesn't get all dinged or scratched up during transport. Only negative thing I could say about this product is that the docking station only works with Firewire 800 so it will be useless to use if you don't have that connection on your current system. Other than that, Seagate makes an awesome product & I would recommend this to any & everyone looking for backup options or solutions.

Not a single problem with this drive yet. This is my second Seagate. The first is still going strong. If you're a Mac user and don't need the FW800, get the PC formatted version and reformat it yourself. You'll save some money.

This review is from: Seagate FreeAgent Go for Mac 320 GB USB 2.0/FireWire 800 Portable External Hard Drive ST903203FJA105-RK (Silver) (Personal Computers)
The Mac formatted Seagate FreeAgent drive is extremely simple to use. The directions for use are simple diagram steps for using each of the cable types for your specific arrangement. The drive, included cables and dock are all well constructed with good quality materials. With the Mac formatted edition, all the cables and dock are included. With the Windows formatted editions, cables and dock are optional and purchased separately. This is a bonus for the Mac camp. As stated in the specs for this product, all of the cable options; e.g. firewire, USB are available with this model.
The grid pattern in the front of the drive when docked light up bright white and dim like a 'heart beat' when in use. Nice touch. The Seagate FreeAgent 5 year warranty surpasses all of the competitive brand names. The only negative would be the inability to daisy chain via firewire 800. Once you go Mac, you will never go back. 2115|R1KDU5VZCRUKTQ;2115|R3GMISYST8VJ8C;2115|R1273U7GFG2FIJ;
