Maxtor 1-touch ll 200gb Ext. HD- advice?

[pm1941]

Just bought online and wondering if anyone has advice and/or hints on using it. Got a good price so found it hard to resist.

My next purchase is to replace my 15" Samsung 753df CRT with a 17" Samsung 713N LCD monitor, again on sale but not until next week.

Also thinking about replacing my LG DVD-R with a Samsung dual-layer DVD-RW (again I've found it at a bargain price) and wondered if the installation would follow the "connect it exactly the same way as the previous drive" rule? (After uninstalling the old drivers of course).

Back-up is the main thing to use that har drive for.

As for the opticle drives, as long as you have the jumper settings set correctly, there should be no problem.
