Title: Horrible - Only a matter of time before it crashes!
Review: This drive failed after 6 months of use. Windows XP will no longer recognize it - and I get a code 10 error. Seagate/Maxtor was useless and says the drive is dead.It turns out, that the USB controller that is inside the enclosure has likely failed - hence Windows XP can't get the drive to start. Breaking the drive from its enclosure and either putting it in a new external enclosure (which will come with a new USB controller), or installing it into a bay on your computer, may fix the problem. But as is, as an external hard drive, this is the worst. Poorly designed and with very cheap components.Any positive reviews for this drive have probably been written before problems that will inevitably arise.I would avoid all Maxtor and Seagate drive from this point forward.
