External storage devices in 320 GB and 750 GB capacities
Looks, Build quality, Connectivity options like USB 2.0, FireWire 400, eSATA, Performance
Hard-to-use power button, eSATA cable not bundled, Connector modules heat up, Expensive
Branded external storage devices haven't always been as popular as they're today simply because of the heavy premium. But this hasn't deterred manufactures from coming up with some new external storage options ever so often. What they lack in terms of value for money, they make up in the style and bundle. The latest addition to this growing segment is Seagate's FreeAgent Pro. It scores oodles of points on style. But does it have the performance to match? Let's see.
We've reviewed the 320GB and 750GB variants of FreeAgent Pro.

I bought the 500 Gig "desktop" version for USD 130. It comes with NO software, not even the diagnostics, NO on/off switch, not even an activity light!

Lol waste of money, Buy internal 320GB Rs. 3500, OR 500GB Rs. 5400 Seagate hdd and buy casing Rs. 750 and use without problems. This paricular casing supports both SATA and IDE.

My Vantec NextStar 3 casing and a WD Barracuda 750 GB HDD cost me Rs.15,900 (by mail order). So if you go for DIY, this baby will cost you marginally more but definitely not 1.5x more .

But if you buy a 320GB HDD, it will cost around 3500-3800 bucks and a casing for decent casing for 1000-1500, It would come to around 4300 bucks max...while the Seagate 320GB drive costs more than 9k...get your calculator dude.
