I should win because I don’t actually have my own computer. I live at home, luckily, so I use my dad’s laptop and my brother’s laptop, but that means that I can’t store a bunch of stuff on there, because I feel like I’m hogging their memory. It would be really cool to have an portable hard drive so that I could store all my stuff on there, and then be able to transfer it easily someday (when I marry a rich man… probably not going to happen though!) when I have my own computer.
Also, I’m really cool.
I would love to win because I have way too many photos, songs and downloads on my pc. I would never say that I deserve to win more than anyone else but I will say that I appreciate the chance!
Thanks again!
My husband’s hard drive just went out on his computer!! He can’t use it, and it is driving us both crazy! We are waiting for our stimulus money to replace it, but this would be sooooo much better!!
Thank you!
i should win because i have tons of pics that are taking up way to much space. plus my hubby is in college and keeps putting all this crap for school on our computer and it’s so full. we have high speed internet and it’s slower than dial up
Why should I win? Because I’m smart, I’m funny, and gosh-darnit, people like me. Sorry, I was channeling Stuart Smalley there for a minute.
We have about a billion digital photos and medical records that we need to protect. Thanks for the chance to win!
Like many of the above posts, we need something around here to store all our pictures on. thanks for the chance.
I think I should win because I have a husband who has loads of pictures on his computer but lately it’s been acting up and he doesn’t want to risk losing all our pictures. Paying off our student loans doesn’t leave a lot of extra money in the budget.
This looks awesome! The only reason I deserve to win is because I never win anything! Maybe this bloggy carnival will be my ticket out of bad luck.
I seem to have this nack at crashing computers so this would be heaven sent.
I’m the photo lady of the family and have a ton of pictures! I’m always afraid that I will loose those pictures.
I should win because as an engineering student there is gigabytes of information I have to take with me to design meetings, meetings with professors, and to the computer labs to show people/work on. This would help me alot. Currently I have a 1 gig flash drive which means alot of my stuff is stored on gmail, which doesn’t always work out because there isn’t internet connections everywhere I need to be. >_>
Please, please let me win, I have over 7000 pictures on my computer that are killing my hard drive. My husband’s 40th birthday is this summer and I would love to get this for him, so he isn’t frustrated my picture hogging self on the computer.
It could save our marriage! Please!!!
b/c we move every summer and this will guarantee that all of the files from our home computer could be transferred to the laptop.
thanks for the greatest giveaway!

I’d like to win because I was going to buy a dvd burner to back up all my photos and music but I didn’t have enough room on my HD to install it!
I had my first child this past summer. Her name is Kylie and she is the star of the family. Both grandparents bought big SLR digital cameras that take pictures that are close to 5MB. My computer is filling up fast! Help!
Thanks.
I could really use this for my nursing home residents, they could save all their work from the community computer onto this and not have to worry about someone else snooping or deleting.
ThanksM
I should win because I’m fabulous. =} Ok, but seriously… I’ve got pictures of my kids, important records and other fun things on my laptop and I could use a good backup plan.
We are students and really need one of these, but can’t afford one. We would LOVE this!
Hi, I know why I would like to win. My husband and two teenage sons are into computers and everything about them. I know they do not have won of these “Maxtor One Touch” portable hard drives. Please enter me in your drawing.
Thanks,Cindi
A couple of years ago, I got my wife a nice digital camera for all of the many, many pictures she takes. Now I need a way of backing them up so we don’t lose the hundreds and hundreds of memories. (Did I mention hundreds?)

I believe I should win because within the last year, my PC has crashed 4 times. I do have a small flash drive that I back up my photos on, but I have lost several folders of photos from this happening. They’re just gone forever. Completely irreplaceable.
I REALLY need this. We have been taking digital pictures since 1999 PLUS I do a LOT of editing of my photos using Photoshop. Meaning I actually need two copies of all my photos (the original and the one I messed with.) needless to say, the space required for all these photos is killing me. Thanks for such a wonderful give-a-way!!!
This would make backing up files on home and school computers much easier!
Thanks for hosting this great giveaway!
I would like to have this because our 9 year old computer really does need a back up plan. It is on its last leg and doesn’t see much help in sight. HELP!!!
I should win because my husband’s digital photos of our adorable toddler are filling up our hard drive. There’s not enough room for my digital photos of our adorable toddler. It’s time for me to have my own space.
I have thousands of digital pictures plus several thousand words worth or poetry, novels and articles I’ve writtenw ith no way to back them up. I feel like I’m playing Russian Roulette.
Thanks for a great giveaway!
I should win…
well, I need it as much as anyone.
As a writer, I dread losing months of work.
I would love to win and give this to my husband. We just had our second child and he has been helping out so much around the house. I would love to use this as a big THANK YOU for him!
Great Giveaway! Thanks!
Oh, I NEED this! I have thousands of photos on my computer right now and if my computer ever crashes…Oh, I don’t even want to think about that. All those precious pictures of my boys in the NICU and growing up!! UGH!!! Pick me!!!
I should win this because our hard drive is destined to fail soon. My husband is the only one in his family who hasn’t had a hd fail, so he says it is bound to happen to him sooner or later. With this we wouldn’t have to worry about losing our stuff!
I should win this because our computer can’t hold many more photos and I have a 2 year old! THose are good reasons!
My mp3s and podcasts are eating the hard drive on my laptop! I could use the extra space.
Right now I’m using my Ipod to back up photos. (I’m a photographer) but I have to give-up music space for that…I’d need to get something dedicated for just photos!
I’ve never backed up anything. That may make me to dumb to win, but hopefully not!
What a great giveaway! I have tons of pictures and Pagemaker files that I would love to backup! This would bring piece of mind for sure!
Thanks for the great giveaway!!
I should win because I am becoming more of a mobile worker. I really need technology that will help keep me in touch at all times and I need to safeguard my data…especially all the stuff on my iPod lol. Thanks for the contest!
I need to win this cause my kiddos are always putting something on my computers and eventually even with a virus software i’m going to get dinged. scrtsbpal@yahoo.com
I would love to have somewhere OFF the computer to back things up – just a safety net. And with baby on the way, it would be nice to know our pictures are backed up
I have over 2 thousand picture of my girls and need someplace to keep them
There’s definitely no reason that I should win over anyone else, but I would love to keep pictures on this.
I think I need to win those so that when my computer crashes next, I could breath easy because everything would already have been backed up with the one touch button!

A portable hard drive, what, are you crazy?
I’m swooning the room’s getting hazy!
If I won this, I’d shout–
Pictures saved! There’s no doubt–
Better than a date with Scorsese!
A temporary place to save permanent stuff. Or a permanent place to save temporary stuff. All that versatility in one little box. And a portable one, at that. Portable, portable, portable….that’s why I need it.
Our last computer died. It was a very tragic and unexpected loss. It did not leave behind a trace, and despite our promises to back up files weekly on cd, we backed up nothing. We lost so much. Now I keep telling my husband that we need a secondary hard drive, but he won’t listen. He likes to live dangerously. He walks on the wild side. He rarely uses the computer because he has his own from work. Save us.
I NEED to win this! My computer’s hard drive is totally full, and I have to keep archiving photos onto CD to make room. My desk is swimming in CDs, and pretty soon I won’t be able to find my computer!
Because we have a ton of lectures and sermons on our computer that we would like to put on a harddrive!
Thanks for a great giveaway!
Wow, could I ever use this baby! I have digital pics coming out the kazoo!
I should win because i recently did experience a hard drive crash
and didn’t have a backup.
I would love to win! I would hate to lose all my digital photos!
my hard drive is starting to make LOTS of noise. LOTS and LOTS. I’d like to win so my husband doesn’t buy me the unromantic gift of a new hard drive for my birthday! : )
