I don't know if the Backup feature of this drive actually works with OS X, it may do but I did not find anything definitive about it on their website.
As it works with Windows and Mac OS, I have a feeling that this drive is formatted in FAT or FAT32. This allows it to work, out of the box, on almost any machine.
It is, however, a notoriously fickle and unstable format for your data.
You would be well advised to format this drive in HFS+ (Journaled) for your data's security. You can do this via Disk Utility.

I just bought a Maxtor OneTouch 4 Plus (external harddrive) for my iBook G4. I'm running OSX 10.4.l0, and the drive mounts fine, and I can drag files on to it and everything.
However, the one-touch feature does not seem to work. Maxtor Manager opens, but when I click "Backup Now", nothing happens.
How can I fix this?
