I'm thinking about getting one of the big USB 2.0 external disks companies like LaCie, Maxtor, and/or Western Digital sell (mostly for backup - perhaps whip out a script that uses rsync to save copies of everything). Do all these USB 2.0 disk drives "just work" under linux, or are there the typical variations in compatibility that seem to plague everything? Any particular model USB 2.0 external drive with exceptional linux support out there? Good experiences to report? Thanks for any info.
just plug it in ... it will work fine
