Works flawlessly in Ubuntu. Comes pre-formated as a NTFS drive but of course you could reformat it to ext2/3/4 if you wished (I haven't done it). Comes with good 5 year warranty.

We have 2 of these and have been used for the last couple of years with no problems under every Ubuntu distro and kernel, updated on release, since purchase.
