In the external hard drive market, there’s no shortage of products available looking to separate your Benjamins from your wallet. Today I’ve been given the Seagate FreeAgent Desk for Mac external hard drive to inspect.

Today I will be taking a look at their FreeAgent Go 320 Gb drive, one of their portable hard drives.
