Title: Just hitches all the time, much better usability is still a long way
Review: My Windows XP machine did not recognize Seagate FreeAgent in the first go. Had to consult a techie friend who managed to install it. I can connect my device to my desktop only with the USB. There is no Firewire option so the file transfer speed is really limited.It did a neat job of storing my data initially. It does not have a power switch so it needs to be plugged in for auto backup. The drive gets overheated even after using for a short period and this in turn delays the file writing process. When I disconnect it and let it cool, it works normally again.I finally suffered a data loss because the drive crashed without a warning. Bad choice for a gad.
Is the review positive or negative?
