Hard drive

Advantages: Very Fast, reliable,
Disadvantages: None

...One of the best Hard Drive makers in the business. I have never had any problems with this make of Hard Drive since I have been using them.

Have tried all the other makes of Hard Drives and have had problems in one way or another with them except the Seagate drives.... Read review

I spoke to an advisor and on special offer was this Seagate External Hard drive, instead of the RRP of £120 I got this hard drive for £70. I thought it would be really useful and this has proved true. The hard drive also came with a 1 year guarenteed warranty. The hard drive is grey and black and looks quite bulky, especially when plugged into a laptop.
