"Seagate and Maxtor seem to be somehow related".....
Seagate owns Maxtor. I've not really compared products under both names
so I don't understand why there are still two names.
I know that when I was working, 40 years in field service with Big Blue,
Seagate hard drives were common in the mid range servers I took care of.
But then I was a hardware geek and not a business major,,,, ;-)

Hi, :)
Just a note on the external hd that was Seagate 500. It sounds like
you bought the same one I did at Best Buy. So far, even though I can
be dumb as a rock, it seems to be working like a gem! I did the
automatic save (having burned most everything to a CD and deleted from
my hard drive anyhow) onto the external, then started poking around in
the Seagate program and figured out how to shut off the automatic
save. Now I just save what I want onto it, I have another one which I
bought to use as a mirror (just incase), as someone mentioned that to
me--I've learned to listen to those with more experience then I have.
Oh, one thing I found interesting was the fact that Seagate and Maxtor
seem to be somehow related, oh well. Linda B.
