I pre-ordered the MacBook Air, and now I am looking for external hdd storage.
I read some news that the Air's usb bus is a bit different from standard (power and compatible issues, especially), is there any concerns that I should be aware of when choosing the external 2.5" hdd like:

or perhaps

Thanks! For any comments.

This is a dupe, please use the other thread.
