Like its larger Onetouch cousins, the drive comes with a number of software
features including automated backup, data encryption, data synchronisation and
System Rollback, to restore applications and operating system while keeping
digital files current.
Its Sync software automatically synchronises files between two or more
computer systems, which Maxtor claimed made backing up systems easy to do.
Maxtor said the decision to release the Mini Edition was in response to the
growing number of mobile workers.
According to
IDC,
the global mobile worker population will grow by more than 200 million users
between 2004 and 2009 to hit 850 million.
Shipping now, the 60GB and 100GB versions are priced at £99 and £149,
respectively.
