Seagate announced the DockStar, a network adapter that will allow users to plug in their FreeAgent external hard drives. The DockStar then plugs into a router, and allows anyone on the home network to access the files. In addition, the owner of the drive can allow access to people from any computer that has access to a web browser. Write permission can be denied, preventing others from inadvertently deleting your data. The DockStar will work with Windows, Mac, and Linux computers. Users can even set up an RSS feed to be notified of changes to drive content.
