Bottom line is I need more space period, whether USB 2.0 or USB 3.0. I got $30 extra dollars invested in this project.

I'm running 64-bit Windows 7 on a Dell XPS 630i. Intel Core 2 Quad Core processor @ 2.83 GHz. 8 GB RAM. The set up is pretty damn fast.

When I get the new external HD and the USB 3.0 card I am going to just copy and paste a ton of pictures and see how long it takes to paste to a Western Digital external drive hooked up via 2.0, and then see if it's noticeably faster via the new WD drive on 3.0.

Will post the results.

Again, I'm out 30 extra bucks -- not gonna change my life.
