I just bought a Maxtor external hard drive the other day, hooked it up and it works fine. It's a simple drive and not one of the one touch backup models. I am using 2.6. kernel so I can't speak for 2.4 kernel. As soon as I plugged it in it was recognized as sda and I was able to mount it and use it.
