Hi, I wanted to play around with Linux, but I do not want to risk problems by installing it on my only pc, I have an Ausumotherboard listed in my sig, and I know that an External SATA connector is in the back on the motherboard, I was wondering where may i find a hard drive that i could use for an external sata connectivity? Im currently using 2 oldie IDE hd's will they work with the external sata if i would like to use it as a backup/temporary storage, will i be able to use an external sata drive to boot linux from it (to tinker a bit with it, and to learn a bit)
asus calls it "SATA on the Go " http://usa.asus.com/products.aspx?l1=3&l2=11&l3=248&l4=0&model=1198&modelmenu=1

is this external sata faster than usb2.0?
i never used sata, so im a nobie when it comes to it
Thank You for the help.
