Not since I used to build SCSI based PCs have I had an external drive that’s as fast as an internal disk. Seagate should definitely be commended for offering such a device and living at the cutting edge of the storage market. However, I can’t help but think that Seagate has missed a trick by not providing USB and FireWire support on this drive as well as eSATA. If this external disk offered that level of connection flexibility it would be walking away with a Recommended award, but as it stands it’s a good product that so easily could have been even better.
