    It's SUPER FAST!

    I paired a 3.5" 750GB 7200rpm Hitachi + NexStar enclosure with eSATA + iogear expresscard eSATA . I just transfered 72GB of Data in 16 minutes!

    It's actually express card, the sucessor to PCMCIA. And I'm on a T61P, very solid!

    Arvin, can you please tell me which bios you're running on the T61p?
    I just read a thread below telling of how horrible the expresscard esata performance is on the this notebook.
