The item in question is a Seagate Free Agent GoFlex Desk External Drive, 2TB; for Mac OS X 10.4.11 to 10.6.2, 32-bit kernel only; UPC 63649 02341.
Moreover, no external drive which I have seen so far has indicated a compatibility with OS X Lion; the latest version of OS X applicable has been 10.6.x.

Seagate's Web site specifies:

Quote:
System requirements

Windows® 7, Windows Vista®, Windows® XP (32–bit & 64–bit) operating system or Mac® OS X operating system 10.4.9 or higher

Have you got a link for us?

I'm not aware of there being any need for an HD to be specifically compatible with Lion, but....
