Seagate Licenses the Pogoplug Personal Cloud

Sep 17 2009

Seagate has licensed the Pogoplug personal cloud experience, to power a line of networked hard drive docks – presumably for use in conjunction with Seagate’s external drives. Pogoplug, in its original $99 form, is a wall wart power adapter that also happens to contain a tiny Linux computer capable of sharing any USB storage, both locally and via the Internet. And I recently received a loaner – while I’m still formulating a Pogoplug opinion, check out my unboxing pics and their new streamlined social file sharing functionality. The Seagate Freeagent Dockstar lineup starts at $99.

I think you should give the pogoplug away!

When I’m done, I’ll ask if we can give the Pogoplug away instead of returning it. And wtf – my own site just hit me with a pop up survey. That needs to be taken care of. :/

This would be even cooler if the plug was wireless!
