esata drive question

2010-05-12 Thread Gerhard Magnus
I recently acquired a Toshiba external hard drive that has both usb and eSATA ports and would like to use the eSATA connection to take advantage of the speed. I'm running FC11 with the gnome desktop. Is it as simple as getting an eSATA PCI card and cable or does Fedora have other requirements? Than
