Product Rating: 4.15 star(s) Maxtor OneTouch 4 Plus

Comments:
The cost of external hard disks has come down a great deal in recent years, and capacities have drastically increased. With prices now lower than 20p per gigabyte they make a great choice as either a backup device or simple storage upgrade.

Review Verdict: A good value external drive with nice styling. Only the lack of an eSATA port keeps it behind the best we've seen.
