To take part, we're looking for your earliest computer and tech memories. Seagate's very first product was a 5.25-inch hard drive in 1980, and with 5MB capacity after formatting you could keep a single MP3 on there (or at least you would've been able to if MP3s had been around in 1980). In contrast, the Seagate 640GB FreeAgent Go can hold thousands of MP3s and still have room to spare.

Head over to this SlashGear forum thread to tell us about your computer and tech memories, and we'll pick one at random to take away the FreeAgent Go HDD. Ten runners up will get Seagate t-shirts. Entries will be accepted until midnight EST on Thursday December 10th – good luck!
