[OpenIndiana-discuss] OI friendly external drive

[Daniel Kjar]

interesting.  I am not sure what the box is (either usb2 or 3) but the 
system is attached to a usb1 only machine.  I think the ultra20 is usb1 
as well.  On my machines the disk shuts off automatically if the system 
goes down so I assume the fact that the box shuts off in a minute or two 
after being hooked to the machine (via usb) that all contact through the 
usb is closed by OI.
