Quote: With FW400, my drives (in a dual-tech 3.5" enclosure) are definitely faster than with USB2. EDIT: hang on while I try it now and measure it again
Eeek.. gag.. Mmm.. I think the firewire support has worsened since the last time I measured this. Or maybe my new enclosure is not as fast as the one I used to have, the last time I checked up on it (that one got fried).
It shows USB2 at 28+MB/sec, and FW400 at 20+MB/sec. Obviously incorrect -- the busy LED flickers way too much during the FW400 test, indicating a driver issue.
Cheers
