External USB HD enclosure?

[Thomas De Groote <thomas@vgk.UGent.be>]

Hey all,

Could someone please tell me what I have to look for if I want to use 
an external USB HD enclosure with Debian? I was thinking of getting the 
Mentor one (http://www.bona.com.tw:8888/pc/ME-350UF.htm), using the USB 
on the linux and the FW on my mac. It will not be to boot with, only to 
carry data from univ to home and back.


Thanks for all input,

Thomas
