Seagate Technology introduces the world's first three-quarter Terabyte external hard drive - the Seagate 750GB Pushbutton Back-up Hard Drive. As the newest addition to Seagate's award winning line of consumer products, the stylish 750GB Pushbutton Back-up Hard Drive is designed to offer the most convenient way for consumers to store all of their treasured digital content right on their desktop. For the first time, digital aficionados can easily manage their ever-increasing digital content on one small desktop device that can hold all of the following: 15.000 digital songs, 15.000 digital photos, 50 hours of home videos, 50 computer games, and 25 DVD movies - with 300GB of additional space left over to easily backup their notebook and desktop computers. What previously would have resided on multiple hard drives in a large enclosure on the floor has now been replaced by Seagate with a sleek, stylish desktop design that takes up as little space as a tape dispenser.

We live in an On-Demand World where digital content has become more readily available for all aspects of our digital lives - in the hand, the home, the car, the office - and it requires massive amounts of affordable storage in products that fit well with our increasingly miniaturized and mobile electronics. As evidenced by the shift to smaller desktop and laptop computers, today's storage solutions need to combine ever-larger capacities into smaller, lighter weight packages. The Seagate 750GB Pushbutton Back-up Hard Drive includes easy-to-use backup software that protects your system and data files with a simple touch of a button on the drive. The Pushbutton Back-up Hard Drive also includes USB 2.0 and Firewire 1394 connections to provide a wide range of connectivity choices for people with different computing platforms and sports a sleek design incorporating a sturdy, non-slip stand for vertical desktop placement plus the ability to stack multiple drives on top of one another, creating a massive, multi-Terabyte desktop storage system in approximately a 7 by 7 inch footprint.

The 750GB Pushbutton Back-up Hard Drive is the first 3.5-inch external drive to use Seagate's revolutionary perpendicular recording technology. It is based on the newly announced Barracuda 7200.10 family, with data density of up to 188 Gigabytes per disc.
