Title: Does not spin down, noisy
Review: Like the name states, it's basic external storage with no special features. Unfortunetly, the unit does not spin down nor hibernate when the computer is turned off. Use your computer 2hrs./week? This baby keeps going 24/7/365 days/year whether the computer is turned on or not. Yes, it does generate a lot of heat and noise which will ultimately lead to premature failure, and probably why Maxtor only offers a 1-year warranty.
