Maxtor OneTouch III 1 Terabyte Turbo Edition Triple Interface (Professional Use Raid) Review by Tech Lab staff May 1, 2006 If you don’t backup your computer and important data, you are pretty negligent, because any computer will someday have a fatal crash, whether the fault is the hardware, OS or an exterior intrusion. There as two things in today’s technology world that are the topic of interest or concern more than anything – Digital Content for consumers like music, photography and video; or the huge problem of Viruses, Trojans and Malicious Software “Malware”. Even the idle boasting of the Mac crowd that Macs are exempt from these threats, has drawn that platform into the recent target of “black hat hacker” virus writers.

Our story from Seagate’s thought leaders. This software provides Maxtor OneTouch program functionality. Maxtor OneTouch III Turbo Edition. Maxtor OneTouch MacIntel Update. Maxtor OneTouch III Turbo Edition G01W010. Data Sheet; Maxtor OneTouch III Turbo Edition 1.5 TB.

It will get worse, as Macs move to the Intel PC platform as many knowledgeable security experts have warned. And lets be honest, people using computers make stupid mistakes sometimes too. Your data, whether it’s you coveted music library, family or professional digital photography, important correspondence and business data or the entire computers system; you need to BACK UP!

I have a friend who had bought hundreds of dollars of music downloads from Apple iTunes downloaded onto her G4 eMac, but doesn’t use an iPod. She uses the music to make customized workout CD’s for a Workout and Aerobics class she teaches. Well one day Mac OS X had a fatal seizure thanks to a not to unusual buggy OS X update from Apple and it wiped out her eMac completely.

We couldn’t recover anything from her corrupted account and had no choice but to create a new user. All the purchased music was gone from the eMac. Fortunately, she had about 70% of that music on CDs that she luckily kept. This 1 Terabyte model will potentially store more than 16,000 hours of music files, 800,000 photos or 1000 GB of data files.

Follow the leader – Maxtor has been a leader in this 'Backup' market for better than six years, and the Maxtor external hard disk drives are exceptionally reliable, easy to use and widely accepted as the finest in the industry. With the advent of the OneTouch series some five years ago, Maxtor was the innovator and very much left the competition behind. Now most of the other Hard Drive manufacturers have mimicked the “one button back up” approach that Maxtor pioneered. Warez Accu Chek Software here. I know barely computer literate users that find the various Maxtor OneTouch devices fool proof. OneTouch II & new OneTouch III 1 TB Turbo Edition (right) This new Maxtor OneTouch™ III Turbo is a new evolution in a very successful product line, as it expands past the OneTouchTM II’s 300GB capacity limit, in various increments from a 100GB USB 2.0 only port unit, to the top of the line 1 Terabyte “Turbo Edition (Professional Use Raid)” with triple port interface of FireWire 400, 800 and USB 2.0.
