would a external hd speed up fs

[Guest 247]

The title says it all really just wondering if i buy like a external hard drive and place all the fs files on that will it speed it up atall ?

If SATA, yes, only if you right now run FS from the same drive as Windows, and no if you right now use a separate internal drive.If USB or Firewire, no, it would make it slower.

Hi,By "speed it up" if you mean loading time, maybe.If you mean better FPS, no.Jimhttp://www.hifisim.com/banners/hifi-community-sigbanner.jpghttp://www.hifisim.com/

Hi,No need to go back to the drawing board, we know that #1 is the CPU and #2 is the video card.Jimhttp://www.hifisim.com/banners/hifi-community-sigbanner.jpghttp://www.hifisim.com/
