Maxtor Onetouch II Firewire 800

A 300GB hard drive for storage and backup

Thanks to the silver Mac G5-esque chassis, the Onetouch II cannot be faulted in terms of style.

A 300GB hard drive sits within, with Maxtor suggesting you split this into storage and backup portions.

Both USB and Firewire 800 connection options are offered. Two Firewire 800 sockets sit at the rear, allowing you to link up additional Onetouch II drives. These can then be stacked on top of each other; if you are just using a single drive, a stand is provided so the Onetouch II can sit vertically.

A copy of the backup utility Dantz Retrospect Express is included, while Drivelock adds extra security by assigning a password to the drive’s contents.
