Well, as the proud owner of 10+ of these Maxtor OneTouch drives, I can assure all of you that they're possitively awful. From personal experience, and from reading countless user complaints on the net, this series of drives approaches a 90% failure rate after 6 months. They also have a nasty heat issue where even if the drive's been in sleep mode for hours, touching the side of the case can burn your hand. Stay very far away from this stuff.
