Freecom 27047 external HD

Hi all,
I'm considering buying a Freecom 27047 external HD (400GB/Highspeed USB).
I'm running Debian testing with a 2.6.17 kernel. Although Linux is not
listed as a required OS, I don't see why this couldn't be used with Debian.
Does anyone have any experience in this area?
Any advice welcome.
Thanks in advance,
Jonathan

you probably mean 'supported'.

I have no experience, but I don't see any reason why it shouldn't work. Disk
drives, unlike modems, usually support USB storage standard (I haven't
seen/heard about any that does not)

I took the expression "required OS" from Freecom's website. I'm sure they do
mean 'supported'.

Yes, that's my experience as well.
Thanks for the help, Matus.
Cheers,
