I have a .BMR file on my C: drive and my Maxtor mini drive is the F: drive. Can I delete the .BMR file on my C: drive? If I do am I losing anything important?

I have a Maxtor OneTouch4, and on it is a file with a ".BMR" extension. It will not "open", and does not seem to be associated with any programs to open it.What is it, and what opens it?

I have a Maxtor Onetouch 4 Plus and have a .bmr$D image file on it. Can I just reinstall just that file to the D: partition of my hard disk without messing up the C: drive partition using the SaftyDrill boot CD? Jan 26, 2010

I am having the same problem as everyone else with a Maxtor Onetouch and the BMR files. What is a BMR file and why can't I open them, they are taking 139GB on my Maxtor.

The .BMR file is a disk image created by Safety Drill which is one of the tabs in Maxtor Manager. I'd recommend deleting it because the restore fails about 75% of the time. The restore CD that came with the drive only has a limited number of start-up drivers. Seagate has another disk image utility called DiscWizard that has a much higher success rate. If all of your data is backed up with Maxtor Manager you should be fine deleting the .BMR files. If any of you are interesting in using DiskWizard it can be downloaded from seagate's website under the download section.
