A Note About EasyManage
EasyManage is an all encompassing application that will, under specific conditions, allow you to manage both Maxtor OneTouch III and Shared Storage Drive products through one single interface.
This simply means that you can use EasyManage in conjunction with these products provided one of the following software packages is installed:

–Maxtor OneTouch III FireWire 400/USB 2.0
–Maxtor OneTouch III FireWire 800/FireWire 400/USB 2.0
–Maxtor OneTouch III Turbo Edition
–Maxtor OneTouch III Mini Edition
Granted, you can use these software packages completely separate from EasyManage. However, it is suggested that you use the EasyManage application with all of these products.
