1 of 5 Great for XP - not Vista Thursday, May 15, 2008
A Customer from Andover , CT
One touch works great on XP devices. Love it. Hooked it up to my Vista laptop, works great as well. Got a new Vista Gaming machine. One touch will not install - needs driver(?). There are no drivers available. Can only use on 3 of my 4 devices Was this review helpful?

5 of 5 Great Drive at a Great Price. Monday, February 04, 2008
A Customer from Patrick, SC
This Maxtor drive comes ready to go out of the box. It has one drive letter and does not require formatting. The Iomega drives I have required formatting to NTFS from FAT 32. The Western Digital drive does not turn on automatically when the computer is powered up (the power button on the drive must be pushed).
This 500 GB Maxtor eliminates all those headaches. I have 2 other Maxtor drives that have been in use for about 5 years and still work fine. I will buy Maxtor Drives from now on. Great Drive at a Great Price. I recommend them to everyone. Was this review helpful?

2 of 5 Be Careful Thursday, January 17, 2008
A Customer from Santa Ana, CA
I bought two of these last Thanksgiving, and hadn't really used them much until now. One of the drives recently started corrupting files, the program I was using told me to run chkdsk, and now all of my files are gone. They are still taking up disk space, but are not in the folders.
If this happens, do not run chkdsk, it makes recovery more difficult. Seagate/Maxtor just says that the we should backup our information, and they will accept the drive in return. There are free recovery tools, so don't pay for Seagates recovery tools at $130.
Apparently, people have posted that the drive inside isn't the problem, it is the enclosure that has trouble. Just be careful and if something goes wrong or fishy, immediately try to recover the data to another drive (this goes for all hard drives). I didn't expect this drive to have trouble as soon as it did. Was this review helpful?

5 of 5 Nice! Wednesday, November 07, 2007
Brett Appelman from Naperville, IL
I just bought this drive, and I am very impressed with it. I needed to get all of my music off of my laptop, it was eating up too much of the internal hard drive. I put all of my music on the Maxtor, as did my wife. Now we can share and listen to both sets of music whenever we want.
The drive is quiet and very fast in transferring data.
