[newbie] External Hardware
Dear List, My only computer is a Toshiba Laptop, I dont really have any intention of buying a desktop system, yet I feel the need to upgrade my hardrive (4.3gig). The least expensive way of me doing this is to buy an external one, but are these supported by Linux? I think they come in USB and Parallel versions. I would also like to consider an external writer. Any comments would be appreciated, has anyone had any success stories with any particular brand? Much appreciated, cheers.. _ This message has been checked for all known viruses by Star Internet delivered through the MessageLabs Virus Scanning Service.
