From the Manufacturer

The GoFlex Desk external drive delivers high-capacity storage and automatic, continuous backup with encryption for all your files with its pre-loaded software. The included USB 3.0 plug-and-play adapter makes it easy to connect to your PC or Mac computer and displays the drive's available storage capacity. The streamlined design complements any modern workspace, and as the world's most versatile external desktop drive, you now have the ability to upgrade your connection interface to suit your needs. This drive is great for allowing you to save or access your videos, photos, music or files.

SuperSpeed USB 3.0 for Faster Performance
The GoFlex Desk drive includes a USB 3.0 interface that provides up to 10x faster data transfer rates compared to USB 2.0 interfaces. USB 3.0 is backward compatible with USB 2.0 so you have the flexibility to access files from any PC.

Plug-and-Play with Automatic Backup Software
The Seagate GoFlex's built-in backup software ensures automatic continuous backup of your data. It secures your backed up files and protects your privacy with powerful encryption software. The Seagate Dashboard management tool software provides easy management of backup schedules, file encryption, and at-a-glance drive statistics, including available capacity.

Access Files with the Interface of Your Choice
Use the advanced USB 3.0 interface for maximum compatibility with standard desktops and laptops. USB 3.0 works with PCs equipped with a USB 3.0 port for maximum file transfer speeds, but also works with standard USB 2.0 ports. Or upgrade to FireWire 800 or powered eSATA by pairing the drive with the appropriate GoFlex upgrade cable. (Upgrade cables sold separately.)

Free your Files
With the included NTFS driver for Mac, you can now interchangeably store and access files from PC and Mac computers without reformatting. The NTFS driver is simply installed once on your Mac computer, allowing it to access and store files in a PC compatible format. (Reformatting to HFS+ required to use backup software for Mac or Time Machine software.)

Enhanced Versatility Is a Snap
Plug-and-play connectivity options let you protect, store, and do more. The GoFlex Storage System allows you to upgrade the way you access your digital content without having to replace your drive. Upgrade cables and kits make it easy to move from USB 3.0 to eSATA or FireWire 800 for even faster transfer speeds for your large files and HD movies. Extend your digital life so you can access and share your files from anywhere.

Customer Reviews

Out of the box, this drive comes formatted for windows. I had to format it using disk utility on my Mac (which took about 5 minutes). Contrary to other reviews posted, this is not a big deal. It works with Mac OS X just fine. I could not find any written literature either on the box or in the instructions stating the speed of the drive. After running diagnostic tests, this drive appears to be spinning at 7200 rpm and has 64 mb cache consistent with other reviews. The drive uses 5 platters, 800 gb each. It runs quietly and has a great sleek design. The price is great too. When I bought mine, I paid $220 ($55/terabyte) for it. In the past week, the price dropped to $198 (less than $50/terabyte!! I would highly recommend this drive to anyone looking for a large capacity backup storage drive.
