Using Maxtor Encryption

Maxtor Encryption offers the encryption of multiple files and folders in one location, the
Maxtor Encrypted Folder. After you create and set a password for the Maxtor Encrypted
Folder, you can simply drag and drop files and folders into it to secure them.
These types of files and folders cannot be dragged into your encrypted folder:
•
