We here at FastSilicon.com aren't very different from our readers. Sure, we get to review and evaluate lots of cool hardware that most of you do not. But we don't always get everything we want either. We'd been developing a mini-roundup of external drive storage solutions but ran into a brick wall with one particular company, Seagate. It seems their PR team didn't read the "About Us" section on our website before saying no to a free sample. 

Not to let that sort of thing stand in our way we often do the sorts of things our loyal readers do. We watch advertisements, look for sales, and snipe great deals when we can. It's through this method that we bring you our evaluation of Seagate's new FreeAgent line of external storage devices. More specifically the Seagate FreeAgent Desktop 320GB.

On to the obligatory specs page, then we'll crack open the box and take a peek.
