Had a quick look around, seems cheap, like very cheap. If you want it, suggest you don't muck around.

Everyone else is at $199.

IMPORTANT TO NOTE:

  • Has a rechargable battery for mobility
  • This is a Wifi and USB 3.0 HD
  • It includes a web server on the HDD so you can stream your movies directly from any other portable device.
  • There is a similar (but more simple 1TB which can be had for ~199 @ TGG) device which appears to be missing the internal web server.

    Would think that's the right price the 1gig is around 150 to 200.

    • ChickenTalon on 10/06/2014 - 08:27

      i had (what i thought) was a proper look, can't see it for anything less than $171 from a store I haddn't heard of

    • Kaboda on 10/06/2014 - 08:36

      I mean 1tb dohh too early.

    • ChickenTalon on 10/06/2014 - 08:37

      Ok, this was irritating me, couldn't work out why the 1TB was listed for cheaper.

      The 500GB has a build in web browser, so you can stream your movies to your portable devices. It's a slightly different device.

  • King Tightarse on 10/06/2014 - 08:26

    Yeah, really wouldn't pay any more considering 500GB

    Wish we can open and stick a 2tb disk in this! anyone done this before?

    • futaris on 10/06/2014 - 08:37
      +2

      Yes. It can be done, but you need a 9.5mm drive.

      You can stick a SSD in here if you want longer battery life.

      There is some crazy blog about this hard disk modding firmware and all that

      There you go.

      http://www.hackseagatesatellite.com/wordpress/welcome/

      HARDWARE MODIFICATIONS:

      Replace your Hard Disk on your GoFlex Satellite or Wireless Plus or Fuel with a Solid State Drive for SCREAMING PERFORMANCE!

      It will be shock proof. Put it in your haversack and roam around town with no fear of a hard drive failure. The GFS / W+ / Fuel can be your NAS in the car for a whole family of fun!
      Better battery life! SSDs takes up lesser power than conventional Hard Disk.
      Check out our video tutorial here.

        have you read the post?

        • hollykryten on 10/06/2014 - 13:14

          Yes i did. He's saying he wishes he could open the Seagate enclosure and put a 2TB disk in it. I'm saying it's cheaper buying a third party enclosure in itself and using that with his 2TB HDD. Why my post got so many negative votes over that is any one's guess just told a fact.

        • Roary on 10/06/2014 - 14:45

          You still didnt read this post well..

          Read the first word in the title. It starts with a 'w'

        • hollykryten on 10/06/2014 - 15:44

          If you're talking about a 2.5" wireless HDD enclosure here you go still cheaper than this $99 and no modifications and no breaking sealed clips needed

          Where is the $25 one?

        • hollykryten on 10/06/2014 - 21:26

          $25 one is USB 3 only. Not every one needs a wireless HDD enclosure

      • brongz on 10/06/2014 - 12:17

        even enclosure for $25 is expensive. you paid too much

        • hollykryten on 10/06/2014 - 13:40

          Depends where it's bought from.

    I paid around this price a while ago from Amazon, near the end of 2012:

    Is it safe to assume that this HDD creates its own router access (like a hot spot). I.e. you don't need any 3rd party router to get access to it?

    • Kaboda on 10/06/2014 - 08:53

      Sorry was meant to click +. You might need the Seagate app on your ipad or android device.

          Wonder why you can't take the + or - away.

    I remember looking this model 1 week ago, at this price, check the app reviews

    Being "Factory Scoop", I tend to believe that's a legitimate price

  • RocketSwitch on 10/06/2014 - 09:52

    When the 1TB of this version becomes $99, I would be all over this.

    This is handy, I can imagine when they do a 2TB on the cheap.

  • Draxxx on 10/06/2014 - 09:58

    Expired? Or not available online?

  • Ebaygiftcards on 10/06/2014 - 09:58

    its now expired

  • CabSav on 10/06/2014 - 09:59

    GONE !!!!!

    I've updated as expired. they've taken the product down (rather than just out of stock), perhaps it was a price error.

    hope a few of you were able to enjoy.

    Ozbargain - finding that sweet spot where the cost of redirecting staff to process refunds and apology emails is outweighed by the aggregate losses on a pricing error

      Muhahaha, but the funniest thing is I will never pay more than the lowest price ever. Still waiting for Dell $9 printers again, I've been hand inking all my print outs for ages now.

    price would be correct - This is the first revision of this product (called a GoFlex Satellite) that first became available about 2 to 3 years ago - This is really, really old stock!

    • quarrymaster on 10/06/2014 - 15:08

      Did the Wireless Plus replace this?

      • [Deactivated] on 10/06/2014 - 23:05

        yeah - almost 18mths ago now, it did.
