Seagate FreeAgent GoFlex Ultra-portable (1TB, USB 2.0, 22mm)

Pros: Portability: I purchased this device specifically because of the portability and my needs. I have two desktop and one laptop computers, all Mac, and I am often out in the field and needed a portable hard drive.

Cons: Durability: Of all the external Hard Drives I've purchased in the past, this is the first time one has failed in less than 6 months! This is also my first Seagate product, it was on sale at Office Max, now I know why.

Summary: Tech support has been kind, but a little condescending, I have over 30 years computer experience, so I know how to take care of my equipment.

I feel my photographic data has been hijacked. The last time I talked with Seagate Tech Support, they offered to replace my device, but if I want my data back, it will cost $500 to $1500 for data recovery services.

In my opinion, this company is not standing by their product.
