Additionally, from November 28th through the beginning of the New Year,
those who register their new Seagate FreeAgent external storage solution will
receive a multimedia package from leading online content providers. The
Seagate FreeAgent Go storage solution provides a slim, portable form factor
with a load of space to back up and store all your valuable multimedia files
from holiday memories to your favorite songs. With up to 500GB of available
capacity, the FreeAgent Go portable hard drive has enough room to carry entire
libraries of movies, music and pictures, making it a great gift for all the
important people on your holiday shopping list.
Those who receive a Seagate FreeAgent external storage device this season
will also have fun loading up their gift with new multimedia entertainment
files thanks to the Seagate Load Me Up promotion. For a limited time, those
who register their Seagate FreeAgent storage solution products will get 50
free songs from eMusic, the second largest digital music service; one free
movie rental; and 50% off the first-year's subscription to SmugMug, the
leading professional photo-sharing destination on the web. The promotion will
run from November 28, 2008 through January 31, 2009, giving people plenty of
time to load up their FreeAgent Go hard drive even after they've put away all
the holiday decorations. For complete details, visit seagate.com/loadmeup on
or after Friday, November 28.
"The FreeAgent Go portable hard drive is the industry's slimmest 2.5-inch
external storage device and the first to feature a convenient dock to
eliminate the hassle of finding an available USB port each time to access
content," said Pat King, senior vice president of Consumer Solutions Division
of Seagate Technology. Now, we've made the FreeAgent Go portable hard drive an
even more attractive gift for this holiday season with colors and free access
to digital entertainment. Seagate realizes that the value of an external hard
drive correlates directly to the emotional connection people have with the
content they store on the drive. Your photos, music and movies are a
reflection of who you are. This is why we've partnered with some of the
leaders in the digital content industry to provide our customers with a
premium package of multimedia for their new drive. This along with the new
colors should put the FreeAgent Go portable hard drive at the top of many wish
lists this season."
Available exclusively online through the Seagate web site at Seagate.com,
the new colors for the FreeAgent Go portable hard drive are available in
250GB, 320GB and 500GB capacities at a manufacturer's suggested retail price
of $119.99 for 250GB, $149.99 for 320GB and $199.99 for 500GB. The FreeAgent
Go desktop docking station is sold separately for an MSRP of $29.99 and comes
paired with a black leatherette carrying case to provide protection from the
bumps and scratches encountered while traveling in a back pack or hand bag.
