The Maxtor One Touch is the perfect backup solution for most normal uses. If you are looking to carry out major corporate backups it may be prudent to go with a more advanced solution. However, for most people and for most jobs, such as backing up media files like video and audio, the Maxtor One Touch is best external hard drive backup solution that I have seen.

The Maxtor One Touch III USB comes in 160GB, 300GB, 500GB, and 750GB sizes. The Maxtor One Touch III Firewire Edition comes in 300GB, 500GB, and 750GB. The newest generation only comes in one model - the Maxtor One Touch 4 has 250GB, 500GB, and 750GB.
