| external HD speed question I got an external HD connected over E-SATA. Internal HD: 8MB 250GB Samsung P120 External HD: new 16MB 320GB Samsung Both drives were using the last partition, both times formatted in NTFS. The speeds I achieved for copying a 68 Gb and a 23 GB folder are: 41 MB/s and 45 MB/s, timed with a stopwatch. Are those values any good? |
