[filmscanners] RE: Slightly, somewhat OT
Honestly, I don't really pay attention to the speed anymore. Right now,
I don't even have a USB 2.0 connection. I put all the stuff to be
dumped on the external drive in a directory and move it when I go to
bed. Sorry...

What sort of speed measurement do you get from the local IDE disk?
That's about what I get for my 7200rpm ATA/100 disk on my 1.4GHz Athlon
system. It may be that you're limited by the speed of the OS in doing
file accesses. The excess speed of USB2 may still be useful if you're
running more than one device at a time from different processes.
