I have a 500GB WD SATA drive in a USB enclosure, which I know can do 60MB/s using SATA (it has an eSATA connector on the enclosure too), and by USB on an Athlon 64 3500+ using USB2 I get 22MB/s read speed. Writing is a little slower. Of course dropping from 22 to 5MB/s is quite a bit, but then again there is overhead and it is a much slower system. -- Len Sorensen -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with a subject of "unsubscribe".
