Can someone give me some feedbacks on the Maxtor OneTouch drive (the new ones with Aluminium case, USB 2 + FireWire version)?

In particular, is it possible to configure such that it can back up two different computer hard disk with one OneTouch drive, and use any spare capacity as a normal hard drive?

Anyone?

Basically, the button simply runs a backup script in Retrospect Express. While I haven't done it specifically, I assume you could edit the script to do something other than clone a disk (which is what the default script does).
