It runs on Ubuntu Linux 7:10 immediately "out of the box". Even under Windows XP I could use it without requiring the driver CD. Apparently, the necessary drivers are already standard on Win XP it.
Negative I evaluate only the reaction of Hama: on my local inquiry before buying whether the drive is functional even under Linux, I was tersely abgebügelt that Hama the Linux operating system not be supported, I could indeed make smart in any forums.
Since it runs properly, I do not understand, that does not use this Hama to apply his product. Poor hardware that only runs with MS operating systems, there are enough so that you could stand out through an aggressive Linux support.
The product itself gets me 5 stars.
