Additional Notes
This driver does not (as of yet) exist at the Maxtor website. Previously I posted that you can use the 3000LE version, but when I tried it on a computer, a file was missing --bad info from Maxtor customer service.
A friend of mine got the same model, so I was able to get the installation CD, works like a charm.
