I recently acquired a Toshiba external hard drive that has both usb and

of the speed. I'm running FC11 with the gnome desktop. Is it as simple
as getting an eSATA PCI card and cable or does Fedora have other
requirements? Thanks for any advice! --Jerry



I got a bracket with 2 eSATA connectors, on the inside are just 2 sata
cables that connect to the motherboard sata ports. Works fine with F11
and 2 Western Digital external hard drives. No PCI card required, unless
you need some additional sata ports.
