REVIEWERS’ GUIDE: MAXTOR CENTRAL AXIS

• Ease of use. Central Axis is designed with easy installation

and user-friendly design in mind. Simply plug the Central

Axis into an available Ethernet port on the home network

router and it automatically configures itself to the network.

The unit quickly loads and organizes content by file type;

provides at-a-glance storage and backup status; and sends

out e-mail notifications when a system event warrants.

Organize Files. With the Drag and Sort™ feature, users can

easily organize files automatically.

• USB port for expansion. Located on the rear panel, the

USB 2.0/1.1 port can be used to connect an additional

external hard drives or a printer.

• Efficient power management. Central Axis conserves

energy thanks to an environmentally smart power-

management utility that spins down the drives when they

are not being accessed. When the drive is accessed, the

drives return to full speed almost instantaneously.

• Hardware security. To protect Central Axis from physical

theft, the back of the unit features a lock slot compatible

with Kensington® MicroSaver® and ComboSaver®

braided steel security cable solutions.
