The Seagate Pocket Hard Drive is a standard high-speed USB 2.0, bus-powered device. It provides a true plug and play connection that supports hot plugging so you can connect or disconnect the drive even when your computer is on. The drive receives power directly through the USB connector so there is no need for an external power source or batteries. The high-speed USB 2.0 is backward compatible with the older USB 1.1 standard; however, USB 1.1 only supports transfer rates of 12 Mbits/sec. To take advantage of the speed of your Pocket Hard Drive, connect it to a computer that supports high-speed USB 2.0 connections. High-speed USB 2.0 supports data rates up to 480 Mbits/sec (40 times faster than USB 1.1). Less

A number of design improvements enables the Barracuda 7200.7 to continue Seagate's industry-leading ruggedness. These include fewer, smaller and lower-profile PCB components protecting against handling damage. The PCB itself is now recessed to reduce the risk of handling damage. A recessed motor housing and connector with protective nub also shield against handling damage. And the drive's chip set is more integrated than ever, with just a single chip dedicated to both read-channel and interface functions. The 120GB Barracuda 7200.7 Hard Drive also features Seagate's 3D Defense System to protect users' information from common problems. The exclusive 3D Defense System - Drive Defense, Data Defense and Diagnostic Defense - has helped customers by improving long-term reliability and reducing returns due to handling damage. Less

Cheaper and bigger than flash

byslathering Mar 4, 2006

Pros cheap, high capacity, no special drivers needed
Cons sort of big, sort of slow, intensely bright blue LED
Recommended it? Yes

I found out about the Seagate Pocket Drive when I started shopping for a replacement for my 512MB Flash memory stick, which had become full. I needed much high capacity, but didn't want to spend a couple of hundred dollars on it.

The pocket drive is almost perfect for my purposes. I'm... Read full review »

Pros Decent storage capacity, decent speed, decent price
Cons Not the latest or fastest technology
Recommended it? Yes

Last summer my mother's computer bit the bullet. The hard drive died and it was a good enough reason for me to convince her it was time to upgrade. She had been using a 20GB Maxtor ATA66 hard drive for several years and on several occasions I had to burn a lot of her files to CD to make room on the... Read full review »

9 Helpfuls 10 Helpfuls Was this review helpful?
Pros 120GB drive for under $100, quick and easy install, decent access time.
Cons None for what I use it for...(mp3 storage and gaming)
Recommended it? Yes

I picked this device up at Best Buy for $47...a bit under the price listed here. The follwing review is quite straight forward, nothing incredibly technical here.

The installation of this device was a snap. (Although one minor irritant that may affect the eager user is that you've got to... Read full review »
