The time to buy a new external/portable memory HDD thingy has come for me - after I took the time to check out online for the best options when it comes to this and my availabl budget/design preferances, I've arrived to the conclusion the decision would be between a Seagate FreeAgent Go Flex 1 TB or WD Passport Essential SE 750/1GB?

Any opinions/suggestions about this? Thanks in advance!

^^ they both are USb 3.0 compliant devices and offers same warranty period - so get which ever is cheaper and looks better ;-)
