Not a fan of USB2 for much more than peripheral device support, rather than data transfer. john ________________________________________ I want to thank whoever it was that steered me to getting the express card slot to eSATA for my 17 inch Macbook Pro. It is so much better than the other ports are, USB2 and Firewire 800. I just got it today and am amazed at how much faster it is. I also got expresscard card readers for SD and CF cards...not sure that I'll use them much as my port will be used by an external eSATA portable drive, but they are nice to have.
