USB Drives

Something interesting that's worth sharing for those using large VPCs on laptops....

While preparing for delivering an Ascend training, Barry Gervin pointed out that using a fast external USB 2.0 drive is better then running the VPCs on the laptop's hard disk.

After installing my VPCs on a fast external USB 2.0 drive and without any numbers to back this, I can say that my VPCs are running much faster then before.  I guess it all depend on the speed of the hard disk installed in the laptop.
