The good: The Seagate GoFlex Slim external hard drive is fast, compact, sturdy, flexible, and relatively affordable. The drive supports USB 3.0 and includes software that enables both Macs and PCs to have full access to it without the need to change the drive's file system.
The bad: The GoFlex Slim caps at only 500GB of storage.
The bottom line: With an ultrathin, sturdy design and fast performance, the Seagate GoFlex Slim external hard drive makes a great companion for a laptop that has built-in support for USB 3.0.

It worked twice one time on two different computers
by danwichp on October 28, 2011
Pros: small good capacity
Cons: wont detect after two uses
Summary: I have a 250gb that works fine. This 320 and its quirky power connector I am disappointed with this product.

- Description: The GoFlex Slim performance drive is the optimal capacity addition for portable devices with limited storage. The ultra-thin anodized case not only helps resist against damage while transport, it also adds a unique and premium finish to the drive. It is about as thick as a pencil, allowing you to slide it in a computer case, backpack or pocket so you can take your content anywhere and everywhere. The GoFlex Slim performance drive is not only thinner than most external drives, it also offers 7200 RPM performance and USB 3.0. The faster drive speed, takes full advantage of the included Plug and Play USB 3.0 interface, allowing for up to 10x faster transfer speeds. USB 3.0 is backwards compatible with USB 2.0 (at USB 2.0 speeds), offering further interface flexibility. Install the pre-loaded NTFS driver on a Mac and use the drive interchangeably between PC and Mac computers without formatting and performance loss. Premium automatic backup and encryption software is also pre-loaded on the drive for ease of installation.
