4 out of 5 stars xtreme storage   November 7, 2008
 1 out of 2 found this review helpful

Way better than the older freeagent external drive it replaced so far. It's smaller and lighter and the software to turn off the drive light actually works in Vista x64 now. What I really like is how the light stays off even when the power is completely off until you switch it back on. Previously you had to turn off the light every single time.Runs quiet and cool. No stuttering or failures so far. Pros - more than 2x as much space as my older external. Included software way better than older freeagent drives and works in Vista x64. Cons - doesn't come with esata cable so I wouldn't know if esata problems are as bad as suggested. It does come with firewire and usb cables and I'm using the faster firewire and works great with that as I said. Included stand crud and not worth using. Choice of white contrasting power and connection cables poor. Only 1.36TB formatted:( and if you are using nvidia nforce chipset even less space will show up in Vista due to bug:
1.5TB (ST31500341AS) or larger SATA hard drive only showing 1.1TB capacity in Windows Vista

1 out of 5 stars Never Seagate, never again.   October 31, 2008

Bought one of these drives for backup, within the first couple of hours it stalls during transfer and begins a rhythmic *click click click click click* obviously signifying imminent drive failure. I managed to get everything off of it and send it back to amazon for a replacement - which did exactly the same thing.

Buy this drive if you like to loose data, otherwise, avoid. Worst external hard drive I have ever bought.

Being Seagate I thought it was going to be good but when I was transferring my files it will just shut down out of nowhere.

It's always on. No ON/OFF switch which is a bad thing for me since I use it as a backup drive.

I sent it back to amazon and I got my money back in a few days.

I bought the AcomData PHD10000USE-72 PureDrive 1 TB 3.5 inch USB 2.0/eSATA (it works great!!! I love it! and it has an ON and OFF switch)
