I'm looking at buying a bunch of external hard drives and I cannot figure out what the differences are between normal Seagate external drives and Seagate FreeAgent Go drives. Here's a link to each one i'm considering.
http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.aspx?Item=N82E16822148408 - Larger External Drive
http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.aspx?Item=N82E16822148342 - FreeAgent Go Drive
I know that the FreeAgent Go drives are slighlty smaller but otherwise i see no differences and a size difference like that doesn't matter to me. Will the slightly larger drive absorb shock better? Is one a better quality drive than the other?
If anyone thinks something other than the Seagate drives would be better for me PLEASE tell me. I've got about a $500 budget, and a minumum capacity requirement of 320 GB. I want to get as many good quality and reliable drives as possible with that money.
