i guess this is why ms is getting to charge us the spoon load of money they charge - fixing things that are not broken. (and for fixing read as fudgeing up)

Always remember - Google is your friend :)

So think it's Ok to take 100 YEARS to copy 24Gb, when most cheap HDD's have sustained write rates of around 60Mb/sec?
As long as you die first :P

Oh wait, the HDD would die first, and the job would never get done, so I guess not...


Some encryption algos are probably quicker to brute force... >_>
