i have a mega mega slow laptop. ripping is very very slow.

i want to rebuild my digital library in FLAC using EAC, but it would
take over 500 hours! Assume i rip for 5 hours each day, thats still 3
months, and i have a life. So, i need a new pc, or a good external
drive.

question 1: regardless of the fact my processor is very old and slow,
will i still be capable of fast rips+encoding into .flac files if i get
a good external cd reader/writer?

question 2: will the quality of audio playback of the external hdd that
i am ripping to change based on different drives?

question 3: i ONLY want this drive for DAE. nothing else. Please name a
few that are good at this job and work nicely with EAC. (preferably
available to purchase from the UK - i live there).

question 4 - Does the USB technology used in an external cd r/rw pose
any disadvantages in comparision to an internal cd drive?
