I have it connected via eSata and every other boot it makes the PC take forever to start up. Disconnect the drive and it starts like lightening. I've googled and googled for a solution but can't find one and I'm not the only person by the looks of it. <br /><br />Having been burgled recently I realise the worth of backups, but external drives are no use if there next to the PC as they will be pinched too. My next purchase will be a netgear NAS drive. I'm looking to get a wireless ethernet one that I can install in the loft or somewhere out of the way.<br /><br />Cheers<br /><br />CalumAnonymousnoreply@blogger.com
