hi, my 60GB is running low (just got back from thailand after two months and a week of taking photos.. that'll do it...).. i want more space... and i want something small.. and portable (using power from USB etc...) im just wanting to make sure in fact this will work. i have a case (http://nanosys1.com/usb-hd-280u2-sl.html) and i just ordered a drive from dell. ( http://accessories.us.dell.com/sna/ProductDetail.aspx?TabPage=techspecs&sku=340-9356&spagenum=2&category_id=5704&brandid=&k=&c=us&l=en&cs=19&mnf=&prst=&prEnd=&mnfsku=&orderby=&searchtype=&pageb4search=&page=productlisting.aspx&instock=&refurbished=)

the two will work with eachother correct? i have a dell inspiron 9200 laptop (4 USB 2.0)
the dell people were not helpful at all.. said it wont work.. but i dont think they understood that i wanted this to be run externally, via USB.. even though i said it many times... and everyone else i have talked to said yes, it will work, any 2.5 notebook harddrisk will work just fine!

i guess i will find out soon enough
just got a little whiff of doubt all of a sudden...

thanks everyone!
