This applies to firewire enclosures as well, probably a lot of other

Agreed, but even if 12 runs at 12, 240 is still 20X. So when I went to
back up a near full TB drive, well, you can do the math. With a proper
USB 2.0 card, the G4 MDD can sy

No one ever gets anywhere near 480 Mbps, you're lucky to get half, if
that. In my experience, Firewire 400 beats USB 2.0 hands down, but
then, you can't escape USB,

The card I got WAS OHCI but still not 2.0, despite the website saying
OHCI.
The box it came in said "Supports USB 1.1 and USB 2.0 devices at full
speed" so I don't hold "We Love Macs" 100% responsible. Yet after a
number of calls and emails, their site isn't clear that this card is
not really 2.0.

All USB 2 cards are OHCI; the Windows XP USB drivers required OHCI, so
UHCI cards rather quickly fell by the wayside.

The Belkin looks good at $9.
Whatever you do, make sure it's 2.0 and not "2.0 compatible."
I bought this one from "we love macs" http://www.welovemacs.com/uh241.html
after reading the line "Supports USB 1.1 and USB 2.0 devices at full
speed "
They charged for shipping and of course I'd have to pay

Try the link belowthis is a Belkin USB PCI F5U220 with 5 ports I've had
several of these, works in everything! Yes, in your MDD too:-) you can find
them cheaper too

I just got my first MDD... and wow, I'm amazed how good it is. I was
expecting something that could barely run leopard like my G4 800
iBook. So not the case.
The big thing lacking here is USB 2. There are a lot of cheap (I mean
