Compatibility with external HDD FreeAgent® GoFlex™ Ultra–portable Drive
« on: September 27, 2011, 11:22:55 AM »
Just to inform you that I bought a Seagate external drive FreeAgent® GoFlex™ Ultra–portable Drive.

I disassemble it and install the HDD inside the DIR-685 router, and it fits and works nice.

This is a cheap option to get an HDD for that router.

Best regards,
Luis

You can find the instrucctions to disassembly the drive in YOUTUBE.

Wouldn't this solution significantly impact the internal temperature and airflow?
