I just bought a 320 gig version of this drive and connected it to vista... it did not come with any software on board and I had to use Vista's backup feature. When I called Seagate support to ask them why I was missing these features and if it had to do with me using Vista the agent basically said that the mobile software discussed in this article is really only available in the smaller drives. The larger ones just work as regular hard drives and you have to get software that is capable of giving you those features elsewhere....
