Seagate Intros 750 GB Variant of its Seven mm Portable Hard Drive
Seagate introduced a 750 GB variant of its Seven mm line of ultra-slim portable hard drives. Bearing the model number STDZ750100, the drive offers an unformatted capacity of 750 GB, while retaining the dimensions of its 500 GB sibling. Its dimensions of 82 mm x 122.5 mm x 7 mm are made possible by using the drive's metallic cover itself as the body on one side, with an insulating metal sheet making up its side-brace and bottom lid. The drive's logic board is seamlessly connected to its USB 3.0 host interface, with a single cable handling both power and host connectivity. The company didn't disclose pricing. The 500 GB variant continues to be priced at $99, so this variant could cost more.

Price/GB isn't much lower than SSDs, but SSDs are much faster.
I misread the original article--thought it was an internal instead of external drive. Being an external drive, the Seagate Seven looks really classy. One of the reviewers said this was more of a luxury item, so it understandably costs a bit more.
Maybe it just the picture and they just not showing every thing you get :P.
