Thanks for your support MacMacMac.

After much thought I've decided to replace the 5400 RPM Drive for a 7200 RPM 500GB Drive.
Hope this way to gain better performance all round.

I would PREFER not to use a USB-connected drive. Yet people have had success with USB that.

I don't see anything in the Vintage D recommendation that says it won't work. So how do you go from ...
(a) "we recommend that it not be on the same drive as the system"
and
(b) "minimum USB 2.0" ...
... to "it won't work" and "do you have reading comprehension problem"?

My reading comprehension says that the requirements have been met!

YES THAT IS WHAT I SAID. I SAID USB 2.0 meets the minimum requirements of Vintage D, so he should try the USB 2.0 drive if he doesn't plan to return it. That's what I SAID. Then musicmad quoted what I said and replied that it wouldn't work because its USB!

So you agree with me, but you are supporting what he said that disagrees with you and me, and arguing with me???? Are you sure your reading comprehension is working? smile

Just btw, the reason I suggested musicmad try the USB FLASH drive is that I was of the understanding that he had already tried the external 7200rpm drive:

Your probably right. I purchased the WD 7200rpm External Drive for speed purposes, which has now been defeated by the slow BUS of the USB 2.0.
Musicmad: if you haven't tried it, I second Macy's suggestion.

(and for that matter, I also second MacMacMac's early suggestion of simply trying the existing internal 5400rpm drive). FWIW.
