External Hard Drive

I am not sure which one to buy. I hear the 1 touch feature on the Maxtor is great, but I love my experience with western digital.

Here are the two I am considering currently (alternatives and suggestions welcome).
Maxtor OneTouch III T01G300 300GB 7200 RPM 16MB Cache USB 2.0 / IEEE 1394a External Hard Drive - Retail

Western Digital My Book Essential WDG1U3200N 320GB 7200 RPM USB 2.0 External Hard Drive - Retail

Any reason to get the pro over the essential? Maxtor over WD?
Which do I get?
