    Is the Seagate Free Agent Portable Hard Drive removable from the casing? If it is, is it one of those SATA laptop hard drives that can fit in my HP laptop in my sig?

    Someone please let me know if you know the answer.

    Thanks

    The four rubber feet, which have fallen off after about five months of use, appeared to be covering screw heads, but they do not. So, my sense is that the two half-covers are kept together via some snap-apart mechanism.

    I don't want to risk trying to open it, because I might break the case. You could, of course, ask a friendly Seagate CSR if it can be opened. :D
