These 4k-sector drives can be problematic when upgrading older |
| 9 |
computers. For instance, my laptop BIOS would not boot from the toshiba |
| 10 |
drive I mentioned earlier. However when used as an external usb drive, I |
| 11 |
could boot gentoo. Since I have been using this drive as backup storage |
| 12 |
I did not investigate the reason for the lower speed. I am happy to get |
| 13 |
a factor of 8 in speed up now after you did the research :) |
