Anyone know if the Micro Solutions (30 GB) Backpack Hard
Drive can be used under Linux?
It has parallel port and USB connections, but I'd rather use USB
for speed (if the parallel transfers are as slow as a parallel
Zip drive!). I know that the parallel mode is supported in the
kernel (see paride.txt).
(The idea to to backup my data at work and put it in a fire-proof
cabinet. I could use tapes, but this seems easier for this
amount of data.)
Thanks,
