Seagate Freeagent Goflex Driver For Mac

  1. FreeAgent Goflex is an external hard disk newly introduced by Seagate. This drive is available in the range of 60GB to 3TB capacity. Seagate also manufactures other models of hard drive like FreeAgent Desk, FreeAgent Go, FreeAgent Pro, etc. The reason for above kind of situation might be that your FreeAgent Goflex got corrupted.
  2. The Paragon driver is a utility that is offered with the GoFlex family of external drives and enables MacOS to mount NTFS volumes (partitions), read from them, and write to them. In short, it makes the GoFlex drive usable on a Windows PC and on a Mac without any reformatting or data erasure or instability. A few notes before the process begins.
  3. Hard drives in Seagate's FreeAgent line - except for the Go Pro for Mac and the Go for Mac - ship with NTFS, a file system designed for Windows. Your MacBook can not read or write to a NTFS drive, so you will need to reformat it to a Mac-compatible file system.

The GoFlex Desk for Mac external drive can also be used interchangeably with both Mac and PC computers without reformatting by installing the downloadable HFS+ driver on the PC. Store over 33,000 hours of music on the 2TB GoFlex Desk Drive for Mac High-capacity storage and backup for all your files with plug-and-play connectivity.

I am now using a USB 2.0 interface with my GoFlex enabling it to mount, but the 3.0 connection is simply not working!


Any comments, tips or suggestions? I will of course be buying a new HD and trying to get my $ back for the GoFlex but any help would be greatly appreciated.


Has anyone found a solution to this problem?


Are there other suggestions for a 3.0 portable external that will 100% certainly work with the new mac USB 3.0 ports? I have a sordid and hellish history with WD so I'm apt to opt away from them. They have a history of sudden failure that I'm aware of by way of personal experience.


What about Iomegas?


Or am I better off building my own?


I think it's the drivers etc that are getting in the way, so maybe a very simple 2.5' HD with a seagate esata to 3.0 cable in a generic enclosure would do the trick?
