It sounds like we all NEED this because we have a lot of PICTURES that we need to store. So I am going to jump out of the box on this one! I am a pretty big JOURNAL writer, BLOG writer, EVENT writer…I like to remember days & moments. I started little notebooks when my daughters were born & I write little things that I never want to forget. I write about every other night. I have started typing these up on my computer so that if anything should happen to the notebooks, I would have a place to retrieve them. Having this external hard drive would be a great place to store all of those important things!!!!! And besides that, I really really WANT TO WIN :)! Thanks for the opportunity to enter!!!

I’m a scrapbook and want to go digital. I have been slowly scanning all my pics and just got a digital camera…I know I’m just know getting hip to it. I’m not so confident that my laptop can handle all the pics cause it has been freezing up on me. I would love to back up all my things to an external hard drive where I know it would be safe.
Nearly a year ago my hard drive on my laptop crashed and I spent a lot of time, money, and endless tears trying to recover my pictures. I would love to have this to backup all of my pictures on so this doesn’t have to happen again.
As a photographer, I am very quickly running out of room on my hard drive to store clients (and my own ) photos.

I have alot of files on my hard drive-slowing my computer down.The external hard drive would be great for storing my files etc. on/as backup.
Thanks for a great giveaway.

I recently purchased a Canon Rebel as per your suggestion. My daughter is shooting pix like crazy! I need more storage space! Thanks for the chance to win.
I always lose my tiny little flash drive (because it’s not on my key chain). The Seagate definately won’t be lost with thebright colors and dock, it can sit right in my office.
Thanks Seagate and Vanilla Joy for the great giveaway!

I would LOVE LOVE this. I have the Cannon XTI and the files are large (and beautiful!) but take up lots of space on my laptop hard drive. I would LOVE to have the security of knowing the were safe! Thanks for the chance to win an awesome giveaway!

I am tempting fate by never having backed up EVERY PHOTO of my children ever. I need this Seagate.
My husband has been wanting an external hard drive for a long time. We just got out of college, so we just haven’t been able to purchase one yet. We have lots of pictures, and now that I have started digital scrapbooking, we are running low on space on our little laptop. This would be so perfect!
I NEED this! My laptop is only a few months old and I keep having to dump it because I keep filling it up with pictures, itunes, and videos. HELP!!!!!! Hoping I win!!!!!! :)

Started doing photography this year and need more storage! this would be perfect!!!
Having enough storage for photos and all the other applications my computer needs is one of the things that drives me crazy. I have so many photos and have them in too many places. This would be fabulous for me to keep them in one place and carry them with me to have when I need them. I would so love the have this!

I love external drives! It is so easy to transfer files to any computer and it is much safer for those files not to be in danger if your computer bites the big one… It would be so nice to have this because my current external is kinda full… ;-)

I need to have something like this because I share my computer with 2 teenagers and they have downloaded some viruses to my harddrive. I need to get all my pictures off before I can erase the drive and start all over. I have hundreds of precious pictures and don’t want to loose them.

My computer is currently “packed, full, etc.” with scrapbooking, photos, music, etc. I have over 100 CD’s and DVD’s everywhere with backups and I would love to have everything all in one place. This would help me stay organized and stop panicking about my stuff getting lost.
I need this badly….my old portable drive is almost full, and I don’t know what I’ll do…I take too many photos, digital scrap, and have a whole folder of ideas to save for the future…this would be a LIFESAVER!
I follow your blog and subscribe to your feed and newsletter.
I am horrible about backing up my photos and other items from my computer. I keep everything on my computer, the details of my whole life. I have a small drive and I back up specific files erratically but I don’t have anything big enough to back up my whole hard drive. This would do that with plenty of space left over.

I have lost pics and music by having my system crash in the past and vowed never to let it happen again. Unfortunately, I forget soon afterward and awhile later something happens again. With this, I would be safe and protected-and not have to worry about the inevitable :) thanks for the chance to win.

I would love to win this because my husband and I bought a house in March and my hours were cut in half shortly thereafter and so we are extremely broke. It would be great to backup our files for safekeeping in a time where we cannot afford it.

I need to win this! I’ve been a victim of losing my all of my pictures, videos & digi scrap kits in the past. I’ve tried finding ways of backing them up, but nothing seems to be the best solution over an external drive. Seagate is one of the best, and something I’ve been trying to save for what seems forever!

We are currently living in two different states due to hubby’s job! It would be awesome to have an external HD in both places so I don’t have to carry the one I have back and forth. I worry about damaging it!!

I have a new camera and I now have approximately 9,873,043 photos that need to be backed up!! (OK, maybe not quite that many pics but I definitely need an external hard drive!)

My husband is a computer programmer/software analyst and so, it’s quite natural that not only does our poor computer fill up quickly (what with me snapping hundreds of photos a week of our babies), but he needs to transfer quite a few files within a week. Sufice to say this would be perfect for him!
Thanks so much for such a generous giveaway! Have a great week!

I am a women entrepreneur and business woman. I’m always on the go, which makes it tough to store data and take it with me. I need a place to store business documents, but even more important, I need a place for the personal things such as pictures of my family. I need to know they’re safe and sound, with a backup removing the chance of losing them. Please give me the peace of mind that comes with the Seagate FreeAgent Go Chrome SE!!!
I have a son in College, who lives at home and a 16 year old son in High School. This would be wonderful to back up our documents, pictures and music on our computer. Great giveaway! I love the red!

I should win because I have no working CD or DVD writer and I know my 7 year old computer wouldn’t last forever. I would be absolutely devastated to lose my files but just haven’t found the perfect solution. This would be it
I would love to have this as I have tons of pictures on my computer that I need to backup. I have most on DVD’s, but you can actually spend a small fortune on DVD’s. And this can travel with you, WOW! I love that.
Thanks for the opportunity.
Oh how I need this – I’m working on an older laptop and I’m convinced one day soon it’s just going to *zap* and never turn on again. It’s amazing how quickly we forget how vulnerable digital files are.

Lucked out the first time my computer crashed as didn’t lose everything on my hard drive. Since that time, I’ve been trying to back up everything on CDs but that is SO time consuming and not the most efficient way. Nothing is automatic unless I get a Seagate Freeagent Go. Just recently I was recommending this as a means of backing up a friend’s hard drive. He can afford to buy one but I can’t right now. Would love to be the winner of this great giveaway!

I have a ton of Digital 8 tapes with videos of our children from birth up. I have transferred some of the videos to dvd, but many of them would be lost forever if the tapes got ruined. They need to be backed up in a couple of different places so they will be sure to exist when the kids grow up. The Seagate Freeagent would be perfect for preserving these memories (plus they would be easy to transfer back to the computer for editing).
