 Hide
CNET Editor's rating: 7.8 out of 10
Reviewed by Dong Van Ngo Review date: 10/19/07 The good: Fast write speeds; includes backup and restore utilities; generous warranty. The bad: The backup utility is a bit limited; restore utility doesn't work for Mac users. The bottom line: The Maxtor OneTouch 4 Plus is a good choice for the average home user who wants a fast and simple-to-use external hard drive for backup and storage. Mac users will want to find a different restore utility to use with it. Product brief - Maxtor OneTouch 4 Plus (500GB)
