Probably true, I agree. But I still don't like to connect my videocamera with USB at all while firewire works great and faster. I actually think they started adding USB ports to the camera's because computers started dropping firewire ports, not because USB is better. I have nothing against USB for external HD/DVD etc. My comments were in the context of "internal HD superior compared to external". I only see transfer-speed as a possible reason for that. cheers, Nick. -- DeVerm ------------------------------------------------------------------------ DeVerm's Profile: http://forums.slimdevices.com/member.php?userid=18104 View this thread: http://forums.slimdevices.com/showthread.php?t=54534 _______________________________________________ discuss mailing list discuss@lists.slimdevices.com http://lists.slimdevices.com/lists/listinfo/discuss
