Product Description

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).

Customer Reviews

stopped working for no reason1
If this still worked it would deserve a 5, but 1 year and 4 months after its purchase its dead. Looking at all the other reviews I am now certain that this product will only cause you grief. SAVE YOURSELF THE PROBLEMS DO NOT PURCHASE THIS.

Not dependable1
Great drive UNTIL it died. I used it for work purposes, transporting files, etc. Then, after about 6 months of use, it died. Basically, my computer didn't recognize it when I would plug it in to a USB port.

Super Drive5
I've had this model drive for over 2 years and I have never had a single problem with it. I take it everywhere with me and I'm not always gentle, but this drive has outdone every expectation I had of it. I know it may not be as fast as over drives, but at the time it was the biggest drive I could get for school and as I said it has taken a beating and still performed flawlessly for me. It's good points outweigh the slow speed.
