OneTouch Button Configuration

Performance & Power Settings

The performance setting has an influence on the drives' access time, using acoustic management.

Power management is a feature that most external storage products do not offer at all. Maxtor allows you to power the OneTouch III Turbo down automatically when it runs idle after a selectable period of time.

Security Setup

The security setup page is very much self-explanatory.

The RAID Dilemma

As already described, Maxtor offers a RAID 1 redundancy mode, which will protect your data in case one of the drives should fail, at the cost of half of its capacity.
