Nature follows one of two paths over time: evolution
or extinction. While the Maxtor OneTouch II was busy
collecting industry awards and satisfied users,
competitors were busy trying to replicate Maxtor’s
secret sauce. The company knew it was time to evolve
the product line.

After two generations of success with an anodized
aluminum enclosure, Maxtor wanted a bold
departure that would provoke an even stronger
emotional response from home and small business
storage users. Emotional design? If this sounds
a bit pretentious, think back to the last time you
went car shopping. Red? Fast? Sport utility? Beefed
up stereo? Our purchases are extensions of who we
want to be. If a product doesn’t have emotional
resonance with the buyer, then it’s likely to find itself
keeping company with the expired coupons and dried-
up pens we all have in our dusty “someday” drawers.

Maxtor went to one of the best names in the field,
frog design inc, to consult on its next-generation
product. Companies like Microsoft, Yahoo!, Dell
and Victoria’s Secret have benefited from frog’s
expertise in helping companies expand and extend
their products and services, creating compelling
consumer experiences. And as the designer of the
Disney PC and Apple IIc, frog is no stranger to
computer hardware.
