| 203084 | 2003-12-25 21:34:00 | I'm wanting to do video editing on my laptop, but of course the hard drive is far too slow. So I'm wanting to use a spare 7200rpm 80GB hard drive in an external USB2 enclosure to solve that problem. This one? --> www.welland.com.tw or this one? --> www.newmotiontech.com They're about the same price. Or, if you think I should go for something else... |

| 203085 | 2003-12-25 21:40:00 | Check two things: Does you laptop support USB 2? It'll be much slower without it! Do you have Firewire? A firewire drive will be faster still... |
