2. An external hard drive is nothing but a regular IDE hard drive in a
USB enclosure. From the standpoint of "easy to operate" they are all
identical, since there is nothing to operate; you simply plug the
power cord into an outlet and the USB cord into a USB port on your
computer.

They are not even close to identical. External drives don't have to be
IDE. Newer externals may support the newer SATA-1 or SATA-2 standard.
They all don't use USB either. Many externals support Firewire and
SATA in additional to USB.

One caution about ANY external drive that uses an external power
supply and most do. NEVER simply shut them off once in use.

How stupid do you need to be.

That's a question more appropriately directed to you buddy Frank.
Since everyone knows Frank is by far the most stupid poster here.
Don't worry, you get the silver medal for stupidity and Spanky brings
up the rear with a bronze.


Isn't it time you head over to see what Rush Limbaugh is doing? Don't you
need to polish some of that wacko Right Wing of yours?

Another Yanaire LIE. When I posted in the Rush Limbaugh group I ALWAYS
opposed the ultra right wing element. The truth of course never fits
into Yanaire's scheme so this putz tries to lie. Who's telling the
truth is easy enough to check.
