seagate 500 GB "portable" drive Review with images 0 of 3 Ciao Users found the following review helpful
Rating from misteekable 5 Stars ()

Advantages portable, no external power, good looks, large storage

Disadvantages nothing as such..

I got a Seagate external hard drive about a semester ago as i was runnning out of space on my laptop with all the songs,videos,games and college stuff. So here is the review for Seagate 500GB HDD after six months of ruthless usage:

some impressive features are a sleek design and surprisingly small size(about 4.5" X 3.5") and weight.

it does not need an external power supply, it gets power from the computer it is plugged into which is really convenient.

it is quiet, smooth and does not heat up. it is very fast and responsive takes minimal time to load when connected to computer.
500GB of storage provides you with enough space for all your media, and other data. which can be transferred by simple drag and drop or copy paste.
no software is needed , the drive will load itself. it is compatible with windows 7 as well.
I have put it to enormous use over the past six months and its still functioning perfectly.
priced at $89.99 it is a great , highly PORTABLE expansion drive for the heavy computer user.
packaging will include the drive and the USB connector cable for both power
as well as data transfer.

hope you enjoyed the review. feel free to comment or ask any queries.

    Your punctuation (such as capital ltters at the start of sentences) also mark it down! Take a look around at other reviews, then you will see what you need to do.

    @dynamicnurse: i thought that was enough for a hard drive..anyway you are free to ask something if you want.
