I used to own this drive. Note very carefully how I say "used to". This is because the drive failed catastrophically. One might even go as far as to say "EPIC FAIL" if one were so inclined.

While transferring files from the external to a new internal drive, the drive itself started to make a clicking sound. The transfer was interrupted,the drive itself disappeared from My Computer and the transferred data was corrupted beyond recovery.

The drive itself was dead, and it was trying to take over seven years of my career as a professional artist with it.

It was *physically* damaged, which necessitated sending it to a Class 100 clean room. Due to it being a pair of 750gb drives in a striped RAID-0 array, the recovery was even MORE expensive than a standard forensic data rescue. It has cost me just under $4000 to save my data and my career.

I will NEVER buy Maxtor products again. EVER.

I've purchased 2 of the 1TB Maxtor OneTouch III Turbo Edition Hard Drives .... both just quit working after a couple months .... I was very fortunate to have backed up the backup in both situations, but I will NEVER get another Maxtor. I've replaced with LaCie and so far so good.

Whatever you do, do not purchase this drive. If so, be prepared for a large headache.

The drive had problems being recognized by all of our systems. When it finally did start working, we transferred large amounts of data (which is backed up on discs, thankfully) and used it for a day or two. Then, it simply stopped working. After talking to tech support, they sent us to data recovery folks who wanted to charge a minimum of $700 to retrieve the data. Maxtor is simply awful.
