Adaptec USB 2.0 Connect USB Adapter

Strengths: Speed, Easy to install

Weakness: No serious weaknesses other than it used up my last PCI slot.

My 120 GB USB 2 External Hard drive was adequate under USB 1.1 but you really needed to dedicate some serious time to copy large amounts of data. Last week I installed the Adaptec 6-port USB 2 Card--what a difference! The card was very easy to install and my Dell 8200 running XP had no trouble using the Adaptec driver. The Adaptec web site offers a lot of good support information as well as a comprehensive help forum. Before USB 2, it took about an hour to copy a 3GB data file. Under USB two, about 5 minutes. I'm glad I got the 6 port hub--I expect I’ll be adding more USB 2 components in the future.
