Hello people, this has been bothering me.
I want to buy an external hard drive and found some external USB2.0 drives claiming speeds of upto 480Mbsp. However, the drive in the external casing is only 133ATA or 133Mbps. How does a 133 drive let data get out at 480?
Also my other question is this: If 133 is Mega bytes per second, that should mean I can copy a 600Mb cd in about 6 seconds? I am not able to do that yet. Any explanation would be greatly appreciated. Thanks!
