[Lvlug] hard drive dock

[Eric Womack]

I can confirm this.

I use a SATA to USB dock to load drives to deploy in machines, and I use the
same hardware to bounce around from Linux to OSX to Windows.  Just shows up
as any other removable drive.  The only issue might come up is if the host
can't read the drive format (loading an NTFS drive when connected to a Mac
that doesn't have NTFS3G extension loaded, for example).
