eSATA is much faster than USB 2.0 but you pay for it...Should I settle for a 1TB USB 2.0 for about $100?
For backing up files? ---------- Post added at 06:52 PM ---------- Previous post was at 06:51 PM ---------- I recently got an 80GB external hard drive to back up crucial files for me and its USB, its plenty fast for me.
