What is IEEE? The kid at the computer dept. was talking about a USB 2.0 PCI expansion card. He might as well be talkin' Japanese!!

I bought a 250 gig external drive a few months ago. It works @ 2.0 on my desk top, but my lap top doesn't have the 2.0 but it still works, just a little slower. :rolleyes:
