I've been using a Maxtor OneTouch III Turbo 1.5TB via USB for a while.
Under XP the system took a while until the drive was ready. Under Vista
it mounts faster. I haven't tried it with a Mac. No complaints (pretty
quiet), nothing special except that it's big - I just use it to archive
backups. Oh, one thing - I don't think some XP disk utilities worked
with a drive that size (diskcheck IIRC), but Vista seems to be OK.

Anyone have a favorite brand or model of this kind of drive ?
A good magazine article review ?
Besides terabyte, I am looking for FireWire 400 & USB 2 at a minimum,
external & reliable.
Thanks in advance for your advice.
Phil
