I'm not sure how kernel things work, or how hardware works in Linux. I want to get this new Western Digital 250 GB external hard drive. It uses USB 2.0. I really don't care about the 8-in-1 memory stick reader. I just want the 250GB hard drive to work.

I've gotten other USB products to work flawlessly, like my digital camera and flash memory sticks. Will it be easy to install this external hard drive?
I have mandrake 9.1
kernel 2.4.21
USB 2.0
