What would be the benefit of using an external drive instead of an internal drive? Heat wouldn't be a problem which is good, but it would mean a little extra clutter. Wouldn't it be slower over USB? I'm doing some Blu-Ray ripping/decrypting and it seems like the speed is being limited by I/O. In case anyone is interested, there is great info on Blu-Ray on Linux here: http://forums.gentoo.org/viewtopic-t-691564.html http://forum.doom9.org/showthread.php?t=143372 - Grant
