The drive slides into the dock and connects via a mini USB connector. Figure 2 shows the DockStar with an optional FreeAgent Go drive. The DockStar is designed to be an accessory for Seagate’s line of FreeAgent Go portable external disk drives. Of course, If you don’t activate a Pogoplug account, you’ll give up all of the remote access and file sharing features which I’ll cover in detail below.įigure 1: FreeAgent DockStar access via network browsing

The DockStar will show up when you browse your network either in Windows as shown in Figure 1 or in the Mac OS finder. You can, however, connect the device to your local network and use it as shared storage without activating a Pogoplug account. The DockStar comes with a one year subscription to Pogoplug and the Pogoplug subscription costs $ 30 after that. The management features that exist are managed through Pogoplug after you activate your account. There isn’t a web-browser-based management interface built into the device. It’s important to note that the DockStar is not a full-featured NAS, nor is it intended to be. And as an added bonus, your files are available anywhere on the web via Pogoplug, courtesy of Seagate’s partnership with Cloud Engines, So File sharing between Windows, Mac OS, Linux and pretty much any other computer or device that sits on a network couldn’t be simpler. Seagate’s new $99.99 FreeAgent DockStar network adapter lets you share the contents of a FreeAgent Go external hard drive or up to three connected USB drives with any networked devices that support SMB/CIFS file sharing.
