[QUOTE="harryb2448, post: 1223523, member: 42497"] To give an example of this speed drop, SuperDuper will back up a Mac Pro hard drive to an external via FW800 at a speed of about 25MB/s, and take some eleven minutes. With a second hard drive in the machine connecting at SATA II, runs at over 80MB/s and takes less than three minutes. Internal drives always run faster than external regardless of how connected.
