Andy,Think of those files like you might the additional folders and files on your c drive.
A bit in the way but potentially harmful if you start removing them. Congrats on the drive as others have said it sounds lieka cracker.----- Original Message ----- From: "Andy Logue" <andy@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx>

Hi David.My thoughts exactly mate. I know what I'm like. I can so easily make matters worse. Perhaps live with the additional files on the display. After all, I'm only going to add about three directories; Albums; AD Movies and My Doc's backup.Thanks. Best wishes.

Quite a good price also I thought. When it boots up I'm presented with all of the files, thatI mentioned in an earlier mail. Last night I created a directory on it,using Windows Explorer and dropped 9000 albums in there within an hour or soand this morning I found that I could access them easily and quickly.Chrison this list has written off-list and kindly provided instructions forFormatting the drive to an NTFS. Do you feel that this is necessary? As I can put stuff onto the drive and get it off again easily. I suppose I needto watch out that I don't accidentally delete on of these files though.Chris's instructions are clear and look easy for me to follow. So what doyou think George, should I re-format it? Thanks. Best wishes.

Plus it has what they call a "One Touch" button for backing up files, which would explain some of the other files/programs on the drive. Additionally the specification says you need an Internet connection for software updates for the drive. Quite a tasty bit of kit all round by the looks of it. George. -----Original Message----- From: access-uk@xxxxxxxxxxxxx [mailto:access-uk@xxxxxxxxxxxxx] On Behalf Of Andy Logue Sent: Saturday, February 09, 2008 9:02 PM To: access-uk@xxxxxxxxxxxxx Subject: [access-uk] Maxter 750 GB External Drive enquiry Hi all. I visited Glasgow today and purchased a Maxter 1 Touch 750 GB External Drive for a little over £100. I have loads of albums and my old Maxter 500 GB is running out of space. I plugged in the new Maxter and the usual windows , What do you what to do message comes up. When I select Open Folder to view files, I'm presented with the following directories: Bin. Drivers. EULA. guides. Mac OneTouch 4.app. autorun.in.# Launch.exe, Launch.ini. mxoicon6.ico. OneTouch 4.dmg. Can anyone please tell me if I've done anything wrong, or if not, where do I send my albums too. Do I simply create a new directory at the bottom of these folders, for example, Albums? Any advise would be very appreciated. Best wishes. Andy.
