I have the same type of mobile drive though its Maxtor. I just added NTFS support and works fine with Fedora 7 and it got detected. Last weekend I tried mounting a 300GB SATA with generic made in china bought from ebay. To test it I initially I plug it unformatted and dmesg was able to identify its a usb storage. After formatting the drive into NTFS, my system just recognized it automagically mounted the drive properly.
