- may know about USB and Firewire but don't know jack shiznit about eSATA..
-
as others have said eSATA *IS* hot swappable...
and i think people use eSATA for the same reason i went to it...
because in real world application it MUCH faster than Firewire 400
or 800... had a drive fail with about 500GB of movies restoring
over USB... ouch! that was painful!
i have tested Firewire 400 versus eSATA on my system (Mac G5)
and typical transfers are nearly ~3 times faster over eSATA (eSATA
only enclosure.. with multi interface enclosure eSATA can suck)...
so if you have a whole bunch of video you want to move around
you want eSATA because it much faster than any flavour of
Firewire... not really fair to compare USB 2.0 to eSATA since USB 2.0
is just a dog on macs... but were talking eSATA transfers of 11
time USB 2.0 speeds... yes 11 times faster! - Posted by: doctorSpoc Posted on: 01/13/09 You are currently: a Guest | Members login | Terms of Use
