Seagate's Latest Hard Drives Strive for Style and Simplicity

Seagate, the hard drive maker, is redoing its consumer line-up with a new product that should make its mission crystal clear to shoppers. Named Backup Plus, the slim (14.5 millimeters) hard drive moves data from a computer for safe keeping. But it also will pull down photos from Facebook or Flickr too. The company says the device is pretty. True, and it comes in four colors: black, silver, red and blue.
