I forgot to mention that this 60GIG drive connects only
to up to 2 USB ports. It has a double cable for it.
It does not connect to the power source directly. No power cord.
Thanks!

It'll be fine if you plan to use a PC thats already over there.
If you plan to use your own laptop etc, those normally
accept all voltages on the power cord, just need a
physical adapter so the pins on the physical plug match.

If you are running really running two USB cables to supply data and power,
then it MAY work without any difficulties. The voltages are converted to DC
by the Power Supply and are the USB specs are universal. The problem may be
in the power draw on the MB headers and connectors. My front USB port
add-on came with a recommendation not to use powered devices via the port.
This is also true for many USB hubs.

I think I know this one: A LaChie Cutie? Anyways, if the drive
has no connection to 220V, then is does not care. USB is the
same voltage all over the globe, so there should be no problem
at all.
I found that front USB ports are often connected through sub-standard cables
and don't work well with USB2 devices. Heck, even the lower pair of
backplane USB connectors is less stable than the upper pair.
