<div>Hi Winpartners!</div>
<div><br></div>
<div>I'm e-mailing on behalf of a helpdesk client, Roberta Brawer, who
is interested in purchasing</div>
<div>a 200gb external hard drive for backup purposes. It also needs to
be USB. She's hoping to purchase</div>
<div>one this weekend.</div>
<div><br></div>
<div>She is not subscribed to winpartners as yet, so please cc:
roberta@mit.edu on your responses.</div>
<div><br></div>
<div>She is currently looking at the Maxtor One Touch II, but she
hasn't seen many reviews for it</div>
<div>good, bad or ugly and would like to know if others have any
opinions to offer.</div>
<div><br></div>
<div>Her requirements:</div>
<div>1. Reliable (most important)</div>
<div>2. Easy to use</div>
<div>3. Reasonably priced</div>
<div><br></div>
<div>Govconnection has one listed:</div>

<div><font face="Verdana" size="+1" color="#000000">Maxtor One Touch
II 200GB Hard Drive</font></div>
<div><font face="Verdana" size="+1" color="#000000">Platform: N Mf

$211.40</font></div>
<div><font face="Verdana" size="+1" color="#000000">Item #:
5529552</font></div>
<div><font face="Verdana" size="+1" color="#000000"><br></font></div>
<div>She wanted to see if this was USB, but the Maxter page does not
have this listed as 200gb. It</div>
<div>says it's only a 250gb hard drive so I'm not sure if this is a
typo on Govconnection.</div>
<div><br></div>
<div>Thanks for any help you can offer!</div>
