last time when i backup my 22gb data from the original 80gb it took 28 minutes. Transfer back into the 500gb also took same time.

if the 500gb is full it might took around 6 hours!

No idea why. I backed up my 40GB in 20 minutes.

Use swissknife to format your HDD into FAT32.

using vista, so i used fat32format.exe which i dl from net.....guess it should not be this issue....weird...

update : i tested on another external usb hdd, buffalo sata, and it only took less than an hour...

must be my wd 160GB IDE thats causing the slow speed....
