[ltp] External USB drive -- recommendations?

[Jean-Philippe Jung (Home)]

Hi,

I made some similar research for a firewire drive. I end-up buying an
external case that could home either a standard IDE internal device (HD, DC,
CD-RW, DVD...) then a regular 60 GB IDE drive to put into it. Sorted out to
be the cheapest solution, but I need external power on that external drive.
If this is an issue, you will have to get with more "fully integrated"
solution. Otherwise, I noticed that a lot of the external bay I was revewing
existed in firewire, or USB version. I ended up buying from Pyro.

Good luck on your research.

JP
