the f/w800 was an easy install. after all, there is a f/w800 plug on the
back of the screen.
the usb 3.0 is another matter. MS does not support usb 3.0. the pci card
did not want to load. the 3.0 driver did not want to load. i think i
finally have it loaded, but the device driver shows a 2/21/06 MS 2.0
driver in the disk driver section,
in the usb controllers>usb 3.0 root hub, it shows a "VIA 1/7/2011" driver.
when i tested drive speeds by dumping a gig of jpegs, looks like i get
about 1GB per minute. the literature talks about 1 Gbit/sec. i think i
divide by 8 to get bites. that's about 40 gb/minute. need help to fix the
problem

i bought a 1T WD drive, and a 2T seagate. the WD is terrible. it is hard
to load. once loaded, it is difficult to find. there is supposed to be
software with it, but i cannot get to it. i decided to send it back. i
downloaded the WD upgrade, and software for something. i cannot delete it
by standard delete techniques. the seagate on the other hand loaded like a
piece of cake. i got an unnessary piece of software called memeo plus, or
somesuch. it has as many ads as norton. hope it goes away at the 30 day
trial period.
i have purchased a 2T seagate 800/fw for wife's machine. had to buy the
800 f/w seagate interconnect. was only $20, and with only 100 for the
drive, all seems pretty reasonable to me.
