    In the Seagate FreeAgent GoFlex family, you can opt for the Seagate GoFlex Desk 3.5" external drive if you want the large storage capacity possible and do not mind a larger form factor. If you prefer a portable drive, then you can go with either the Seagate GoFlex or Seagate GoFlex Pro 2.5" external drives. The difference between the two is that the Pro version has a dock and comes with premium backup and encryption software.

    Today, we will be looking at the Seagate GoFlex 500 GB portable external hard disk drive. It boasts the following features :

    - Upgradable to faster USB 3.0 or eSATA cables/kits.
    - Upgradable with a continuous, automatic backup kit.
    - Able to share files by pairing it with the Seagate GoFlex Net media sharing device.
    - Docks directly into the Seagate GoFlex TV HD media player.
    - Option to purchase only the drive (without the cable).

    Now, let's take a look and see how this portable hard disk drive fares against the competition!
