Disappointed that I failed to ask the question

"I've been contemplating getting a new external drive for some time. I'd been using an enclosure with an 80GB drive until I burned the drive out. So, I did research and found that the Seagate FreeAgent suited my needs best. Good transfer speeds and backup software included.

"I wanted this drive to back up the main C/ drives on my two desktops and one laptop. It has the capacity for this. But the backup software is only Windows and on a pseudo-CD on the hard drive and if that gets corrupted the backups would be useless. So I am using Acronis backup.

"This product would work great if the file types would be recognized. AI, PDF, or anything stored inside a file...It trashes the data. Big thumbs down if you are relying your graphic, web design or even music to be reliably stored. Your best bet is to store each item individually and check that each …" Read Full Review »
