Thats an advantage of firewire. I didn't have (and don't have it now)
the space for in "internal" IDE-drive. So i'm using this drive via a

No problems so far. :-)

I wonder if this is true. But i don't have to flash the firmware
(because of "high-speed" DVD-R) as long as Verbatim sells their current
