Hi Martin,
2008/9/28 Martin Nopola
I need help with buying an external HD. I bought an Iomega eGo external 160 GB USB hard drive but it is not recognized by my os 11.0 linux only box. I thought it would work like my USB flash drives. Searching the web I found nothing about drivers but on Hardware4Linux I found that all Western Digital cards work on linux. TigerDirect has a Western Digital Firewire/USB2.0 combo about the same size.
Does anyone have a recommendation on this or any other external HD?
I have an external USB HDD cache from SNT whose model also includes a fan for the enclosed drive. for home use the unit is great and just works. On the enterpeose side you could always look into a Drobo as it is a RAID like array but without the limitations of RAID. I would love to get one for home but the price tag is a little steep.
