Hello David,
Well, No, I purchased the Seagate Terabyte External Hard Drive at Staples,
which is like Office Max, or Office Depot.
It was on SALE, cost $139, and the regular price in that store was $200.
I just had DSL installed for my new Dell, running XP, and since I was
downloading so fast, I started collecting stuff!!
In fact, I collected as much in two (2) months as I had collected in 10
years with my Dial-out modem, and my old Gateway running Windows 98 (First
Edition) (Smmile) !
Hey, I still have it set up next to my new Dell, it is still working, and
since it has two (2) hard drives, I use it for stuff!
I am going back this weekend to get another one, and hope it is still on
Sale.
Not because I believe I will fill up the Terabyte, but I want to back up
everything I have on one to the other.
What I am downloading is very precious to me, and do not want to even take a
one in a million chance of losing it!
Not that I do not trust Seagate, I have a 30 GB Seagate for almost 7 years
it is in my old Gateway, and it is smooth as a whisper!
I also purchased a Seagate external Hard Drive 30 MB for $900 back in 1985!!
Yes, $900, not a typo! (Smile)
It was still running when I dumped the IBM PC I used it with!!
Darn, I should have kept that thing, it might be an antique now!!
Oh yes, the applications that came with the Seagate Terabyte were just too
graphical, I could not use JAWS with them.
My wife was explaining the graphics to me, and it seem they were just simple
directory type Applications.
So, I just ignored them!
With Best Regards,
Alan

Subject: Re: [JAWS-Users] Hello Holger ,Answering your Question on the
Seagate manager
Is that the drive that Tiger direct has right now for 119.95? I ask
because
I picked up a Sea Gate a couple of years ago from them and it didn't come
with any software at all. I just plugged it in and it was off to the
races.
In other words these are some screen reader friendly external drives. Mine
is a 320 which is now over half full.

Hello Holger ,
I just purchased a Seagate Terabyte external Hard Drive, and it did also
come with the Seagate Manager.
I opened it once saw it was not JAWS Friendly and have ignored it for the
two months I have had the hard drive now.
I suggest you keep it however, it does not take up much space, and perhaps
one of these Days some one will write scripts for it.
And then we will see if it is helpful to us!
