It seems that Seagate are continuously pushing the boundaries of exactly what an external drive can be. Not all that long ago they released the GoFlex brand which instantly revolutionized the portable storage niche with its ability to change the interface it required with almost no effort. Then they pushed the limits of 2.5" capacity with their release of 1.5TB GoFlex beast and the competition trembled. Well Seagate are back again and this time they have their sites firmly placed on changing our expectations of how small a 2.5" hard drive based external storage device can be with their all new Seagate 320GB GoFlex Slim. Today we are going to see exactly what makes the GoFlex Slim special and whether or not it is worth your hard earned dollars!

The Verdict:
In almost every area from performance to its physical size, the Seagate 320GB GoFlex Slim is a significant upgrade from previous GoFlex models. The only area it does not excel at is in capacity. If 320GB of blazing fast 7200rpm based performance is enough room for you, the Seagate GoFlex Slim is what you want.

The Good:
+ Extremely thin and portable
+ 7200 rpm hard drive
+ Great software included
+ GoFlex adapter for future proofing
+ 3 year warranty

The Bad:
- Only 320GB in size
- Price to capacity ratio is low
