    The left frame is a single USB drive, then Targus hub added and finally a second USB drive added. Notice the speeds as drives and Targus Hub added to separate ports (3 total) one at a time. SP1 was reported to improve USB through put.

    The bottom frame is on my E1705 running XP. Needles to say all my 450GB Lossless music file back ups will be on the XP machine.
