4 out of 5 stars Great drive- fan a little noisy at times   July 31, 2008
I have been using this drive for about 9 months now. I placed my entire multimedia collection on it and it is connected to a wireless router as a server for my laptop, ipod and apple TV. It works well, but when it first comes out of sleep mode the fan is a little noisy.

All in all I recommend this drive!



2 out of 5 stars Works well, then fails after a time   July 19, 2008
I bought two of these drives to use for backups. I alternate daily backups from one to the other each night.

I use the Firewire 800 port on each and have them daisy chained.

One drive failed after a year and was replaced under warranty, the other drive failed after about 6 months and was replaced under warranty.

The drives started reporting bad blocks and the Maxtor diagnostic reported an error code with a message to return the drive. Both drives had almost identical symptoms.

These drives are pretty fast, quiet and appear rugged. But they are not
very reliable in the long run. If I were to do it again I'd buy a Seagate Barracuda drive.



4 out of 5 stars good hardware, poor support from Seagate   June 22, 2008

works well. i like the triple interface. industrial design is dependent on your tastes. however, don't loose your included CD. i lost mine and had a nightmare finding the drivers as i couldn't find them on Seagate website.


2 out of 5 stars Maxtor OneTouch III problems   January 15, 2008
  2 out of 2 found this review helpful

I've had a Maxtor OneTouch IIIs for about a year connected to my MacPro desktop. When I shut down or restart my Mac, it frequently will not recognize the Maxtor until I turn off the Maxtor, disconnect the firewire cable, reconnect the cable and reboot the drive. I've tried the 400 and 800 firewire connectors with the same result. This problem has existed from the start beginning with OS10.4. The biggest problem is customer service. I've gone to Seagate's site and downloaded the latest drivers with no improvement. I tried their minimal trouble shooting guide to no avail. Worst of all, I've sent two e-mails using their tech support system and haven't had any response whatsoever. No more Seagate/Maxtor for me, thank you very much.
