skf said:assuming you are using a desktop PC, why not get a firewire card for about $30/-, if have available PCI slots and willing to open up the PC to do the installation
Then get the Lexar firewire CF reader (thats is about $80~ ?, i think)

cursor, actually i am on USB 2.0 already, counting the ones i have in office i have 5. But the fastest one is only about 9MB/sec. The slowest is 5MB/s. All are High-speed capable. However there is a speed difference.
mpenza said:9MB/s is pretty fast liao. The bottleneck could be the harddisk and CPU processing.
Phil got around 9MB/s using Cardbus 32bit (is this faster than USB2.0?):

Wai said:Forget about USB if you need to read/write lots of files...although USB is capable of 480MB/s while firewire only 400MB/s, but USB cannot sustain the high speed, so in the end it will be slower (much much slower) than firewire when transfering lots of files
Can't seem to find the Lexar Firewire reader. Forgot about EG though...haven't check.igpenguin said:i did some tests:
