The intial release of the OneTouch III Turbo 600GB Drive were available with a RAID 0 (Striped) volume only. Products in question that solely possess RAID 0 capability have a Kit Number that starts with "G0".

Later releases of the OneTouch III Turbo 600GB are available with RAID 0/1 capabilities. 600GB products with RAID 1 functionality have Kit Numbers that start with "C0". All OneTouch III Turbo 1TB models are avaible with RAID 0/1 capability.

While it’s not possible to determine if a OneTouch III Turbo 600GB Drive has RAID 0/1 capabilities based on its model number or serial number, and you may not know the kit number if the drive’s original packaging is no longer available, you can still determine the drive’s RAID capabilities based on its firmware.  If the OneTouch III 600GB Drive’s firmware is revision 3.3.6 or greater, it has RAID 0/1 capabilities.  If the firmware is 3.3.5 or less, it can only be configured as RAID 0.  Use Maxtor OneTouch Manager to determine the drive’s firmware revision.

There are currently no plans to offer firmware updates for the OneTouch III Turbo 600GB Drive.
