Seagate FreeAgent Pro 750GB External HDD Reviewed. Verdict: 5-year warranty, Speedy

The need for data backup is often overlooked. PC invoices blame the complex steps in backing up the files of their choice. Geeks often rely too much on their memory to do manual backups as they are the group who spend most of the day in front of a computer, but without automatic scheduled backup, data is still at risk. Rather than listen to users scream the proverbial "NOOOOOOOOOO", Seagate has ramped up the speeds and warranty on their latest external drive, the FreeAgent Pro 750GB - powered by Barracuda 7200.10, and coupled it with Memeo's powerful yet intuitive backup software. Benchmarks and software analysis after the jump.
