One thing is for sure, the Seagate Slim lives up to its name, being a wee bit larger in dimensions compared to the iPhone 5 from Apple, making it the ideal storage companion for folks who want a sleek and portable look and feel without compromising on space. Apart from the hardware that delivers 500GB of storage space in a chassis that measures a mere 9.6mm thin, the Seagate Slim also comes with Seagate Dashboard, which is an easy-to-use backup software that paves the way for one-click or scheduled backup and the ability to back up Facebook and Flickr albums. Compatible with USB 2.0, the Seagate Slim sports a speedy USB 3.0 interface to keep up with the times. Depending on the retailer, the Seagate Slim would cost you anywhere from $80 to $100, backed by a 2-year warranty.
