Title: Just a few notes . . . UPDATE
Review: I do a lot of archiving onto both external hard drives and optical disks in my photography business. I own three Maxtors: 150, 250 and 300. I found the software to be worse than worthless, but the drives work just fine.I drag and drop files onto the current drive when I need it. Afterwards I turn the drive off to avoid wear and tear.I had trouble with my old 150 GB drive once because I had it formatted at FAT32 instead of NTFS, but now it's fine. I still back up onto optical disks as well, although they aren't safe either. Nobody seems to have a bulletproof archival system, so play it safe.UPDATE: I still pull data off this hard drive years later. It still works fine on my new Win 7 64 bit machine. To repeat: I do not use Maxtor's lame software, just the hard drive.
