I love fbsd but it /is/ pickier on some hardware than windows and I don't want to use that software, so.. I'm planning an external hardrive. NAS (network attached storage) drive are very expensive. So I will buy an usb2 drive, I think. As always, money's short ;-) Do you have suggestions on *good* working and not to expensive usb2 harddisks for FreeBSD-6.1? They should be reliable and easy to mount on my server. -- dick -- http://nagual.nl/ -- PGP/GnuPG key: F86289CE ++ Running FreeBSD 6.1 +++ The Power to Serve
