Thanks. Got it installed and it works. The only problem is that the
external USB drive that I am worried about returned this:

SMART support is:     Unavailable - device lacks SMART capability.
Error Counter logging not supported
Device does not support Self Test logging

Sigh. :(

Oh well. I don't have the purchase information, but it has to be at
least past its three year warranty and the issues it is displaying
convince me that it's time for replacement.
