Bought a 500 Gig SATA drive and a portable enclosure to corral it, the idea being to install the latest Mint on it, and update Thunderguts and Firefox (or whatever it's called this week), then transfer what I want from the drive in my MSi notebook.
I plug in the USB connections and a pretty blue light comeson, the drive is spinning, but there is no sign of it where there should be.
True, I haven't played with the jumpers yet, but surely, there ought to be *some* acknowledgement that there's a drive there?
And what number has Mint reached? I'm running 14 at present, and I have a feeling that it's a bit too long in the tooth...
