[QUOTE="shotz4U, post: 661829, member: 35153"] thanks Alycia, I've read somewhere that it is not the FW800 that is slow, it's rather a drive that at 5400rpms isn't capable of providing information quickly enough, something like connecting IV drip to a garden hose. Apparently FW800 shows off with RAID setups, not slow disks like this one, that leaves me only with a question, why would LaCie even produce a FW800 enclosure if the drive can't provide enough info to saturate it...? and why is FW400 faster in my case than FW800. Your FW800 seems to be giving you better results. thanks again. [/QUOTE]
