If you're going to be transferring a large amount of data the Firewire 800 for sure.SAdProZ said:I need an external harddrive, infact I have to order one by tonight. Thing is I can either get an external harddrive with both 'FIREWIRE400 and 16MB Cache', or an external with 'FIREWIRE800 and 8MB Cache'. Which one is gonna be faster? I need help quick. Thanks in advance.
