There's a couple of things I'm curious about: if I just plug it in will Kudzu/updfstab automatically create mount points and fstab entries; and, what does one have to do when you want to unplug it - is right clicking on its nautilus icon and choosing "unmount" sufficient to make then unplugging it safe? I guess what I'm asking is: how "hot-pluggable" are these drives? Does magicdev cause them to show up on the nautilus desktop?
