(A little OT, but hey, I use gentoo :) I am looking for a recommendation for a usb 2 and firewire 2.5 inch external case.
I heard that there are problems with the prolific firewire chipset, a friend had one that wiped the partition table every time he plugged it into his PC's firewire port! (same device worked ok with usb). I've also heard that the oxford chipset is good + fast. I am looking for something that will be able to push as much data from my 2.5in 60Gb 5400rpm laptop HD as possible. I'm replacing it with a larger HD so I want to use the storage in a reasonable manner. I appreciate your suggestions, especially if you're using a particular device already.
