I have had trouble with the eSATA interface; not sure if Seagate has updated firmware yet or not, but I know I'm not the only one who has had issues with the FreeAgentPro line and eSATA, both on Linux and Windows. The USB interface works fine, but gets half the speed. I have another eSATA drive, which just happens to be a Seagate 750GB drive in a generic eSATA/USB enclosure, that works just fine with my laptop and a SiI 3132 based ExpressCard eSATA adapter. -- Lamar Owen www.pari.edu -- fedora-list mailing list fedora-list@xxxxxxxxxx To unsubscribe: https://www.redhat.com/mailman/listinfo/fedora-list
