Product Review: Seagate FreeAgent Go External Drives

Hello IN[FOCUS] Readers:

Have you been looking for a great external drive that is easy to transport?  I have found the perfect drive. Watch the video (by clicking on the still frame below) to see why we have chosen the Seagate FreeAgent Go Drive for our business.

*It is small and easy to transport.

*Comes in 250GB, 320GB or 500GB

*Uses the power from the computer so you don’t have another cord to plug in.

*Gives flexibility to where you can do your editing. (home, on the road, at your childs practice…)

*Great for Same Day Edits (SDE).

We originally purchased this drive for our SDE’s because we don’t always have a place with multiple power outlets and the larger drives we use are heavy and kind of clumsy.  As soon as I saw the commercial for it I was online trying to find out more information (price & capacity).  I found it at Fye’s Electronics and John went and purchased it the next day.  I think we paid $170. for the 320GB.

We loved it so much I ordered a second drive just for our rough cut editor, who is a student at IU Bloomington and thought it would be a better way to get the footage to him.  This time I ordered directly from Seagate and received free shipping. I only paid $150.

When our kids are out of school, I don’t like spending all day at the studio.  I love that I can grab it easily and go.  When editing at home, I can sit in my favorite chair and edit or go outside on the back patio.

I highly recommend investing in the FreeAgent Go drive.  It has helped our business be more productive.
