[QUOTE="James, post: 101315, member: 7582"] You evidently have never used firewire or you wouldn't say that..it is about twice the speed of usb making file transfers fly. You will want to upgrade your usb to v2 for sure. 7.68 gig of files transfered at 10 minutes on usb2 and it only took 5 minutes on firewire 400 on my system. If i were you i would check out the LaCie 160 gig d2 triple interface. For only about 80 bucks more you get an extremely fast usb-firewire 400-firewire800 unit with twice the storage space and able to use all three interfaces, much better buy than a simple 80 gig single interface. Comes with all the cables for each interface. Lot of bang for the buck and a very solid well built unit. [/QUOTE]
