Seagate Pocket Drive Review - Storage
#1 Best Internal Hard Drive
This big drive combines speed, capacity, and reliability, making it an excellent choice for most users. It's massive, with 1TB of storage space, and very fast thanks to its 7200RPM speed, 32MB cache, and Native Command Queuing. The drive is also very quie
Seagate Barracuda ES.2
Monster storage; plus a choice of professional SAS or consumer SATA interfaces and reliability to boot.
Review Verdict: Its performance is undeniably impressive, and Seagate's track record in reliability (as well as its warranty and claimed failure rates) make this a tempting buy. That said, we will be reviewing more terabyte drives from other manufacturers next week, so y
Product Reviews: Seagate Pocket Drive 2.5GB
The 2.5GB Pocket Drive found itself trailing behind the competition when it came to benchmarks and while we wished it performed better, we were more or less expecting these results. The drive finished our HD Tach benchmark test with an average read speed
Review Verdict: If portability and bang for your buck are more of a priority than performance, the Pocket Drive delivers.
QuickTake:
Product Reviews: Seagate Barracuda 7200.10
The only slight downside is that the Seagate doesn't offer the fastest access times so if you want SCSI-like responsiveness the Hitachi is arguably the better choice of the two. If heavy data transfers are more your thing however, the Seagate is king of t
Review Verdict: The Barracuda 7200.10 is a beast of a drive that will be able to tackle even heavy data transfers without breaking a sweat.
Seagate 5GB Pocket Drive
The Seagate USB 2.0 Pocket Hard Drive won a CES 2005 Innovation award, and it's easy to see why.
QuickTake:
Seagate Barracuda 7200.11 1 Terabyte Hard Drive
Seagate joins Hitachi at the 1TB milestone but is it too little too late?
Review Verdict: Seagate's first hard drive to break 1TB has everything you would expect in terms of features and its performance is better than any other high capacity drive available. You have to pay a little extra for that extra space but if you really need 1TB of stor
Seagate 100GB USB 2.0 Portable hard drive
It's another external hard disk from Seagate, this time with an impressive 100GB capacity.
Review Verdict: The 100GB USB 2.0 portable hard drive from Seagate definitely isn't as cost effective as a 3.5in external unit, but it is smaller, lighter and still large enough to store masses of data.
Seagate Barracuda 7200.9 - 500GB Hard Disk
Looking for half a terrabyte of storage? Segate's latest Barracuda could be the perfect catch.
Review Verdict: The question of compatibility overshadows the 7200.9 as we expect that storage should plug in and behave, and the idea that a hard drive may 'disappear? at any moment is deeply concerning. The 7200.9 is fast, quiet and good value, but its new SATA2.5 feat
Seagate 5GB Pocket Hard Drive
If there's one thing there's an excess of these days, it's stuff. Video, music, photos, interactive flash games and amusing clips we've found on the internet - we clog up our hard drives and removable media with it.
Review Verdict: The Seagate 5GB drive is perfect if you primarily use a notebook. File copying is fast and it's cunningly designed so cables coil back along its perimeter when not in use. But it's rather fiddly to plug in to a desktop PC.
