I am looking for a 120GB external drive for my TiBook.

I think I have it narrowed down to the WeibeTech UltraGB or the LaCie D2.

I like the fact the WeibeTech does not require any special drivers - is it the same with LaCie?

Comments & pros/cons are welcome.

Thanks.

LaCie drive works fine without special drivers under OS X or OS 9. Apple's built in drivers work fine with the LaCie drive.

Also, the LaCie drive is sold by Apple at the Apple online and at retail stores.
