Subject: Backup up Linux fileserver via Maxtor External Hard Drive
Date: Wed, 29 Dec 2004 11:31:33 -0500	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <004501c4edc3$e036f440$1f0aa8c0@lanadmin> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <5.1.0.14.1.20041229074910.0217b010@celine>


We recently purchased a Maxtor External Hard Drive 250gb OneTouchII. We were
considering using this to backup data on our RedHat Linux 9 fileserver,
hooking it directly to this fileserver. One unrelated issue is that the usb
is probably 1.1 while specs are 2.0, though the drive does say it's 1.1
compatible. Second, what issues do we need to resolve in order for a. the
Linux box to read the drive, and b. formatting the unformatted external
drive to work with the Linux box?

Thanks,
Eve
