lostsole says "Great portable harddrive with lots of space" about Seagate 750GB External USB/Firewire Hard Drive

The Segate 750GB is built on the Barracuda 7200.10 technology for outstanding Performance and reliability.

This Drive also includes USB 2.0 and Firewire 1394 connections for speed and connectivity options. the foot print is about 7 by 7 inches but comes with a stand for vertical placement. The Case is also designed to stack with other Segate Externals.

I carry this drive in my pack, everywhere I go. I store my CD and Concert collection on here and use it on average about 10 hours per day. I am not the most caution when transporting it either. The pack gets throw in and out of the car and dropped on floors where ever I go. This Drive has stood up to the daily punishment I submit to it. I have only used the USB port and have had enough speed for the most part (don't move large percentages of the drive between drive or you'll be waiting).

I liked this drive so much I have another 750GB and a 500GB.

I had a western digital hard drive - well I actually I had two - and found that both were junk - I bought the 750 and now I have two - I store a lot of data and I place it right on the external keeping my lap top free, and then I use the second 750 as back up for the first external. they do tend to cost more than other hard drives, but I have not had any problems and have been very impressed. Set up is very easy no special configuration and they have a solid warranty. I will purchase another seagate the next time around....

TheBard says "Who needs a tape, I have my Seagate " about Seagate 750GB External USB/Firewire Hard Drive

Data, it is the life's blood of most business organizations, and my small (growing) computer consulting business that I run from my home is no different. Over the years I have gone through several backup solutions from external to internal tapes, internal hard drive storage and DVD's. I finally settled on large capacity external USB/FireWire hard drive drives onto which I now save my data.

I initially purchased one and then two Seagate 300GB external hard drives; these replaced a 40GB (compressed) Sony tape backup unit and 20/40GB tapes that was installed in one of my server. The tape backup unit had worked well in the past, but as I have added more storage capacity to my file server, the files stored therein have seeming multiplied overnight to where a full backup no longer fits on one tape.

However, I came to the realization that I needed even more backup capacity, and moving to another tape back solution would prove far too costly in both hardware and software. Seagate...
