yep, though it would take a few more than three drives to get over 300MB/s!

Jam it back in, in the dark.

if the game needs better sequential read rates, go for the usb drive, but if it needs lots of random access, go with the internal

actually i'd benchmark it. use hdtach and benchmark your external vs. your internal.

There's nowhere I can't reach.
