Re: ext. desktop hard disk 3.5" for laptop
Hi,
there is a system for USB which has an external power supply so it isn't
really portable as it needs to be plugged in.
the only one i know can be bought at www.allnet.com or www.allnet.de don't
know exactly. it works even with 100 GB hdd but i haven't tried it under
linux.
obviously USB is annoyingly slow for these amounts of data. i use it only
for my mp3 collection so in my case that doesn't matter.
greets benny
