Maxtor introduced on Monday the OneTouch II external drive, which features one button that activates Dantz Retrospect Express and performs a data back-up based on the user’s pre-selected preferences. The OneTouch II features FireWire and USB 2.0 interfaces, 7200 rpm with a 16MB cache, 250GB (US$329.95) or 300GB ($379.95) capacities, DriveLock for password-protecting its contents, the ability to use it as a boot drive and more. Maxtor noted that additional drive capacities will be rolled out later in the year. System requirements call for Mac OS X v10.1.2, v10.2.4 or v10.3 or higher with 128MB RAM.
