Seagate Replica review

Fri, 20 Nov 2009 14:19:02 +0000

Available in 250GB and 500GB versions, the Replica external USB hard drive is the very definition of bother-free back-up. It doesn't offer enough flexibility or storage capacity to satisfy everyone, but, for those of a non-technical bent who don't have a huge collection of data, it's well worth a look

Seagate Freeagent Theater review

Tue, 12 May 2009 15:15:02 +0000

In spite of its irritating American spelling, the Seagate Freeagent Theater is a handy little device. In tandem with a Seagate hard drive, it's a very easy and pleasant way of looking at photos and listening to music via your TV. It can stream video as well, although that shouldn't be what you're looking for here

HP EliteBook 8730w review

Thu, 30 Apr 2009 11:41:02 +0000

A gorgeous 17-inch DreamColour display is the standout feature of the workstation-class EliteBook 8730w, but it's not the only aspect of this laptop that helps justify the premium price tag. The 8730w also boasts superb performance, excellent build quality and a good keyboard

Seagate FreeAgent Go review

Fri, 03 Oct 2008 10:51:02 +0000

The FreeAgent Go is part of Seagate's latest new line of portable hard drives and is by far the thinnest we've tested, and it still maintains a reasonably fast transfer rate. It's available in a variety of capacities, from 250 to 500GB, and in a variety of colours, too: silver, black, blue or red

Seagate FreeAgent Xtreme review

Tue, 30 Sep 2008 16:21:02 +0000

Unless you consider three interface options to be especially intense, there's nothing particularly extreme about the Seagate FreeAgent Xtreme hard drive, but we still found plenty to like about this external drive -- particularly its simple and functional design, fast performance and value for money
