Hello all, can anyone recommend, from personal successful experience, any of the very large capacity (circa 1 TB) USB external hard drives for use with Linux? I ask because I cannot find a retailer in the UK who will say they will accept a return if the product doesn't work with Linux. Anyone who can give me a model name/ number available in the UK would be specially useful. I would buy a simple 'fill-it-yourself' enclosure, but many of these appear to have non-adjustable limits on the size of disk they will read. I'd also love to hear about any of the external drive ports that now seem to be going about which accept a SATA hard drive dropped in as a hot swappable connection. While I realise that the assumption should be that these products ought to work with any OS, there seems to be some talk of some of them having firmware only addressable from 'doze, including firmware that will cause them to go into an unwakeable sleep. I don't want to involve myself in any hardware that would cast Vista in the role of a Prince Charming having to come in and wake up a Snow White drive.
