This review is from: Seagate FreeAgent GoFlex 500GB USB 3.0 Ultra-Portable Hard Drive (Black)
Pros:
Plug and play on Windows, works on Mac with included (I want to say Paragon? - can't remember) software, slim and lightweight, USB 3.0/2.0 capable, runs quiet and doesn't get hot.
Cons:
Only con I can think of is the cable, it's a little short and I'm not sure how common the type of plug for the port going into the hard drive is or if it's a special order kind of thing when it comes time to replace it.
Overall Review:
Unfortunately I'm stuck on a Mac at work, and my rig at home is a Windows PC, so I needed storage that worked on both systems for when I work from home. I also deal with a lot of large files (graphic designer) so I preferred to avoid the file transfer size limit with FAT32. This was exactly what I was looking for and can't beat the price point.
