Hi George.It's a monster and will back-up, my back-up if yu like. Quite a good price also I thought. When it boots up I'm presented with all of the files, that I 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 so and this morning I found that I could access them easily and quickly.Chris on this list has written off-list and kindly provided instructions for Formatting 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 need to 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 do you think George, should I re-format it?
Thanks. Best wishes. Andy Logue To Contact me off list: andy@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx----- Original Message ----- From: "George Bell" <george@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx>

Hi Andy, Just had a look at the specifications for this drive, and since it is advertised as plug and play for both Windows & Mac, this would explain the addition files. 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.

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.
