It's still a challenge to enjoy your computer's music, photos, and movies on your TV, but Seagate hopes to change that with the FreeAgent Theater+ HD. It's a home theater docking system that works with Seagate's FreeAgent Go portable drives.
The idea is that you connect your FreeAgent Go drive to your computer and load it up with all the media you want to share: all your home movies, family photos, and favorite songs. Then, plug the drive into the FreeAgent Theater+ HD, which is connected to your television. You'll be able to browse through that material with the included remote.
The FreeAgent Theater+ HD includes two USB ports for attaching other storage devices, and an Ethernet port so you can access it from your home network. The company will release a USB wireless adapter in October. The system works with both Windows and Macintosh computers. Get it as a standalone product for $149.99 or bundled with a 500GB FreeAgent Go drive for $289.99.
