 The drive in question is a Maxtor OneTouch II, 300GB drive with both
 usb and firewire ports on it.
 I have checked Maxtor.com for the updates you mention, but the only
 thing I could find were:
 - os specific drivers for Windows, OS X
 - updates to included backup software (again Windows and / or OS X
 specific)
 
 If therer are firmware updates for this drive, could you plase point me
 to it?
 
 Thanks!
