I have nothing to add except that I would wait until there is SATA external drives. Without having to do anything extra. ESPECIALLY if you want to put an OS on it.

i got my sata drive an enclosure, which are harder to find than you'd think, but now im getting it filled up with 200gb of music


anyways i think my point was that you could save money getting a drive and enclosure

don't forget SATA>eSATA>firewire>USB

Firewire is slightly faster. Plus if you don't have USB 2.0 then it takes forever to move shit...

Well like Bleed said it's not recommended for OS because it would take too long to load up. But your not stupid (at least, I don't THINK you are), and your not considering using this for your OS, just to port shit around. Correct? Like, take it to school?
