I have a 4-year old DELL desktop with a heavy CRT monitor that I'm going to give away soon . I also have a 2 month old laptop. Both computers run Linux/SuSE. I would like to buy an external disk to save most of my s/w development now residing on my old desktop. But I would like to be able to use it also with my laptop. Both computers have some USB ports so I daresay an external USB disk would be fine .. I'd appreciate some suggestion about a USB reliable, large capacity but portable, external disk or any alternative solution.
Thank you in advance. Maura
Wow, I wish I lived near to you. At 4 years old that PC is still a youngster compared to some of mine :-)))) Cue threads on who has the oldest PC running with SuSE on it.... I think my oldest is about 8 years (AMD K6-2 450mhz). I have one older (Pentium 166MMX) but it's not used anymore. -- ============================================== I am only human, please forgive me if I make a mistake it is not deliberate. ============================================== Xmas may be over but, PLEASE DON'T drink and drive you'll make it to the next one that way.
