    Seagate FreeAgent Go Portable Hard Drive and Dockstar ($200 value) Review & Giveaway! (Ends 3/19)

    By 927 Comments

    Have you ever been bugged by your family for pictures of your children or been away from home and realized you needed a photo from your home computer? Now I am terrible at printing photos and giving them to my parents and in-laws and even with the technology of blogs and photo sharing websites, I still slack off and don’t upload as much as I should. Well Seagate has an awesome product available that makes it easy to share your photos, music and movies with your friends and family.

    The FreeAgent DockStar is a compact dock which allows the Seagate FreeAgent Go portable drive and most USB storage devices to be shared on your local network or accessed remotely via the Internet.

    FreeAgent Go Features:

    • Store photos, music, and other files
    • Carry your data anywhere you want
    • Sync data between computers
    • Back up files using the optional dock

    FreeAgent Dockstar Features:

    • Access to your digital files from any computer on your home network—PC or Mac®— and from anywhere in the world
    • Easily share your photos, music, and movies over the Internet without uploading
    • Listen to your music, watch your movies, and access your content from an iPhone®, iPad®, Blackberry® or Android™ device
    • Create a private virtual space for sharing files with friends and family

    Setting up your FreeAgent DockStar is super easy and user friendly. Simply plug in two cables (Ethernet cord and power cord) and then you go online to activate and it will automatically configure your DockStar via a Pogoplug account. Once activated, everything is displayed in a clean and organized web-based interface. There is no special software required either.   To access your Dockstar, you just log on to Pogoplug either by typing in the specified web address in your browser or you can download a program onto your computer.  I tried out both and I honestly prefer the web version, but they are basically the same thing.  As a side note, the Pogoplug service is required to share your content outside of your home network and can be purchased with a subscription fee, but a 1 year subscription automatically comes with the Dockstar.  If you don’t want to pay for the Pogoplug service after a year, you can use your Dockstar within your home network for free to view your content while on different computers at home.

    You can also intergrate your DockStar with your favorite social media sites and even publish easy RSS feeds. Whenever you add files to a particular folder, they are automatically updated on your social media page, so you don’t have to waste time uploading them to the Internet or emailing them to friends and family, notifications of updates will be automatically sent (if desired).

    Well Seagate has offered me the chance to run a “Share the Love” Giveaway in honor of the month of Love! The purpose of this giveaway is to show everyone how easy it is share and access priceless digital content, like photos with those you love and they can also upload photos to your DockStar for you to see! I have put a bunch of photos on my FreeAgent Go Portable Hard Drive and placed it on my Dockstar.  In honor of Share the Love, I am sharing a folder on that hard drive with all of you so you can see who I love!

    BUY IT: You can buy Seagate FreeAgent Go Portable Hard Drive in various sizes and colors from 250GB to 1TB, with the 320 GB retailing for $99.  The FreeAgent Dockstar can be purchased for $99.

    GIVEAWAY: Winner will receive a FreeAgent Go Portable Hard Drive 320 GB (Windows only) AND a FreeAgent Dockstar. The retail value is $200.

    WIN IT: Visit my Pogoplug Account via my Dockstar and leave a comment on your favorite photo (file name)!

      I don’t even know how I ended up here, however I thought this
      post was good. I do not know who you might be but certainly you are going to a famous blogger in the event you are not already.
      Cheers!

      Adorable photos! I think my favorite would have to be the photo with the Groucho Marx glasses — file number IMG_2151 — both because it’s adorable and comical and because I have a very similar photo of my nephew with the same glasses that’s near and dear to my heart. Thanks!
