My internal laptop harddisk gets about 20.5MB/s reading. From what I read in Documentation/usb/ehci.txt, 20MB/s should be possible over USB. I guess I'm wondering whether in practice people get near this, or if my 9MB/s over USB is more typical. For people who might be googling, let me just record that even with the performance I'm getting, I'm able to capture video from a videocamera over firewire and write it to the USB external hard drive without dropping any frames. The firewire port and the USB port are on a single Cicero CardBus PCMCIA card, and I had feared that this might be a bottleneck, but it is fine. I have to use ext2 and not ext3, but that's also true when I capture to my internal hard drive.
