I wouldn't touch Seagate with a barge pole after thehassle I have had with my old one. I have had it for a couple of years and rarely used it, plug it in now and I can see the file structure of what is on it, but cannot access anything on it. It has what is affectionately known as "the click of death"!
Wish i had known that before i got mine. Paid £80 for it a couple of years back and very rarely use it.... good fecking job i dont
