Customer Reviews
Average Rating:  out of 5 stars

Rating: 1 out of 5 stars - Do not knock this over- buyer beware!
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 ... Read More



Rating: 5 out of 5 stars - Seagate Free Agent Pro 1TB Firewire
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 ...

Rating: 4 out of 5 stars - Does its job quickly and efficiently, but included software a no-go on 64-bit OS.
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.



Rating: 5 out of 5 stars - Solid So Far
I bought this drive to house a very large music collection (AIFF files). Purchased the drive b/c of Seagate's leading reputation after dealing with severe heartbreak after the failure of 2 Western Digital My Book's.

I've had the drive for 2 months, seems quiet, efficient and unobtrusive.

So far, I recommend.



Rating: 5 out of 5 stars - Fast and Safe
This drive performs very well, it's fast, doesn't overload YOU with required software (interfacing software is optional), and a well planned physical footprint have made this my new favorite. Additionally it is nearly physically tamper proof - you will destroy the housing if you attempt entry (we tried). One drawback I ran into was difficulty in using certian (will not name) wipe software to completely remove all data. This could have been due to a compatability problem with external drives or a problem ... Read More
