Maxtor Shared Storage Drive Review

October 31st 2005 | Storage

Maxtor is actually offering two product families with the 300GB Shared Storage version on review here. The Shared Storage Plus is physically identical and is also offered in 200GB and 300GB capacities. The only difference between the two is the software bundle as the Plus model comes with Maxtor’s SimpleView backup utility and its MediaRetriever which is aimed at networked home entertainment systems for playing back digital video, music and pictures.

The 300GB Maxtor Shared Storage is competitively priced and compares well on value to Western Digital’s 320GB NetCenter. Network performance is in the same ball park but Maxtor’s build quality is far superior and its handling of USB storage devices is far superior.
