How well do USB hardrives work under FreeBSD? What brands do/don't work.
(The discussion of this in the FAQ under hardware compatibiilty
a) doesn't discuss disk drives and
b) refers to version 3.x of FreeBSD!
)
Is there some other place I ought to be looking for this sort of info?
is 1394/firewire supported at all?
How about USB-2? And would I have to have USB-2 *ports* on my computer to
use it if it was, or is this just a software/driver/external device
difference?
Thanks for any insight.
