I recently bought a Seagate 300GB external drive at Fry's ( a US store ) for $139 after rebate. Works great with Linux. Has one light / button in the front that blinks when the drive is being accessed. Supports USB and Firewire ( I'm using USB ). Seems like they have these deals almost weekly. -Scott On 2/7/06, Kevanf1 <kevanf1@gmail.com> wrote:
I have two Maxtors. Both work fine. One is an 80gb drive with the other being a 100gb drive. They are both brand new and come with backup software that is only of any use in Micorsoft operating systems :-( That's possibly the only bad point. I have used them with SuSE 9.1, 9.2, 9.3 and now 10. Both are USB2 but they do also come in firewire guises and I think there is a LAN version. The USB2 ones that I have just worked and have nice blue read/write LED's. That's about it really.
