At £90 a go I am reluctant to risk it on the off chance it will work. Wouldn't be so bad if I could return it if it doesn't work but I get the impression the shop would say "It says on the box it only works with windows or mac".
Have you thought about getting a NAS? They are pretty cheap, and will probably be quicker than USB, too.
e.g. Google suggests that http://www.reghardware.co.uk/2009/02/18/review_storage_network_wd_my_book_wo... is now available from £113.98 which although a bit more than the £90 you suggest will be more flexible. I can't recommend a specific device, that was just the first one that turned up on a quick search.
