Managing FreeAgent Drives with Seagate Media
The CD that came with your media player includes the Seagate Media software. On
computers running Windows, you can use Seagate Media to manage your FreeAgent drives.
(The tasks in this section don’t apply to computers running Mac operating systems.)
TIP: You can also use Seagate Media to synchronize media files between your Windows
or Macintosh computer and the drives you connect to your media player. See Chapter
7 “Syncing Your Media Files” on page 34 to learn how.
Getting Started
If you haven’t already, install Seagate Media. (See “Installing Seagate Media” on page 34 for
help.)
Connect a FreeAgent drive or external USB drive to your computer, open Seagate Media,
then click My Drives in the top left corner.
The My Drives window opens. All supported drives connected to your computer are listed.
Click any drive to see more details about its contents, including how much storage space is
still available.
