Seagate FreeAgent DockStar Network Adapter Review

Seagate just added a new line of its docking station, Seagate FreeAgent DockStar Network Adapter. It's not just a docking, Seagate has made it more accessible. You can connect the docking to ethernet port and access it from anywhere with the internet.

Thanks to Cloud Engine, the makers of Pogoplug. With their technology, you can manage your Dockstar-connected USB drive by visiting dockstar.pogoplug.com or mypogoplug.com. The difference of Pogoplug and Dockstar is on its price. With Dockstar you must pay $30 per year starting from the second year to get the Web-based access, while Pogoplug offer it for free.

To activate the Dockstar you should visit www.seagate.com/activatemydockstar. Create an account on the website, and you are ready to manage your hard drive with Web-based interface.
