New computer just arrived - downloading COD Black Ops 2 from Steam at 6.4MB/s, and copying my iTunes backup on the portable hard drive to the new 2TB second drive at 38.9MB/s on the USB3.0 port.

I feel the need, the need for speed..... :D

I assume that's a USB2 HDD? as I get better speeds than that on USB 2

Brilliant :)

My mother in law arrived safely in the UK - we all went out (with my dad too) last night for dinner, and decided that every time she visits she brings the snow :)
