[QUOTE="Geeky1, post: 599250, member: 34442"] He'd be far better off using Firewire rather than USB2. And while that's a valid option, it doesn't do anything to help the fact that modern drives will hit 50, 60, even 80MB/s or more sustained transfer rates; the old 5400rpm drive in the G4 is lucky to hit 20 going downhill with a strong tailwind.
