Maxtor OneTouch 4 Mini (160GB) review

By Dong Van Ngo (cnet.com)

Fast write speeds; comes with backup and restore software; compact size makes it easy to tote around; generous warranty.

Restore software doesn't work with Macs; backup software is too basic for power users.

The Maxtor OneTouch 4 Mini is a great option for working on the go, with fast write speeds as well as backup and restore software.

Like the name suggests, the Maxtor OneTouch 4 Mini is the tiniest member of t...

Maxtor OneTouch 4 Mini (250GB)

By (pcmag.com)

Small, rugged, and fast, the Maxtor OneTouch 4 Mini (250GB) remains a great backup solution, particularly for Windows users.

Fast data transfer. 256-bit encryption. Can fit comfortably in a coat pocket. Five-year warranty.

SafetyDrill does not work with Fat32 drives, or Mac OS. Data can be shared, but not synced between Windows Vista and Windows XP machines. Extra power occupies two USB ports.

With a more robust software package than its rivals and a cheaper price to boot, the Maxtor OneTouch 4 Mini remains the external hard drive to beat.

Small enough to snuggle comfortably inside a coat or even a suit pocket, the ...

Basic backup software

By shinings (pcworld.com)

Fast and quiet. Very nice design, light-weight. two-headed USB cable allows more power, but so far i didn't have to use it yet (for both my desktop and IBM laptop).Nicest thing in my opinion is 5-year warranty from manufacturer. My last portable hard driv...

One Touch 4 Mini External 120GB Hard Drive

By orangetabby (pcworld.com)

I bought this as a back up hard drive for my aging laptop. It works well. I deleted the software for one touch back up, so I can't comment on that.I now use Norton Backup to back up data daily and OS weekly. Does give me peace of mind.

Small size, nice look.

OneTouch 4 Mini 160GB External Hard Drive

By SDTechDeals (pcworld.com)

Smallest portable hard-drive I have ever run across. Great capacity at 160GB, though there are 250GB ones available if you need that. It has a rubber base, so it doesn't slip. Comes with a 5-year warranty, which is fantastic. Note that the warranty is bas...

Super compact; rubber base; 5-year warranty
