OneTouch button.

Diagnostics: Where you can check the health of your drive.

If you did the Full Installation, including Retrospect, the button on your Maxtor OneTouch II drive is automatically set to start your backup whenever you press it. If you customize it, it will disable your OneTouch button backup settings. However, you can reset the button at any time by clicking Revert Settings. If you also have a Personal Storage 5000 drive, you can set its button to launch a different application.

DriveLock Data Security

You can set a password for your Maxtor OneTouch II drive. Every time your drive is on and connected to your computer, including when you start or restart your computer, or when you turn off your drive and turn it back on, you will need to enter your password or the answer to your secret question, which you setup when you create your password, in order to use your drive.

If you have forgotten your password, you can attempt to re-enter it or to recover it, by answering your secret question. You are allowed 5 attempts before you must turn off your drive and turn it back on, at which point you can try an additional

5 times.

If you are not able to recover your password, the only other way to unlock the drive is to erase all of

its contents.
