Hi,
Does it work on other system ? like freebsd (live cd => freebies), or Windows (M$$) ???
yes they are working an a Win machine and on a machine with Debian stable (3.1).
Could you give us the model of your material ? I don't remember, it's a hard drive ?
yes it's an hard drive. The fact is i'm experiencing freezing with the two external HD i own... they are really different, one is a Lacie HD and the other is a 2.5" HD contained in an external case.
