Those will still be worse than with a normal IDE internal connection for the drive. you write about the protocol of USB2, but is not seen that cuse drop down speed more then 15%?? Correct. Clearly the much better thruput seen in the benchmarks Tom did with the WD external drives proves that USB2 and firewire protocol overheads isnt that bad. But it is the reason that USB2 does a bit worse than firewire. |
