Im doing image backups over my home LAN 100baseT to a Dell Dimension P3 600
XP SP2, 640mb, to USB 2.0 PCI card to 250G external harddrive.
During this backup time, CPU utilization on the P3 Server is 100% and
network is 20%.
If I do the identical backup to a installed HD on the same P3 PC the CPU
utilization is 75% and network still 20%.
Any way to make USB more efficient CPU use wise.?
What should CPU usage be for something like this?
Any insight appreciated
