What I am looking for now is a external HDD USB would offer me the most. 
  I don't have firewire right now.  I understand that the device needs 
to support Mass storage standards(?).  I most have spent a good 30 
minutes at frys on Sunday looking at the drives and didn't see one that 
even said it would support Mass Storage. currently looking at the 
network accessible drives too, but maybe later when the cost comes down.

Does anyone know of a list that shows which ones work with Linux?  I 
wonder how safe I would be going by the compatible with MAC OS 8.6 or 
higher on statement the box also.


Then later I will have to wonder what is the best cross platform format.
FAT,FAT32,NTFS,or Linux) probably the old FAT32 so I can read/write with 
  Linux and Windows.
