| GGKoul:
Hello Just wondering if anyone is using a USB HD in there cabinet? As I'm interested in purchasing one so I can hold everything romset I have and easliy move the drive from machine to machine. But I'm wondering if anyone is running the game from the USB drive? As I would like to know if there is any proformance loss by using a USB HD during gameplay. Thanks! -GG |

i gotta think that the load times would be a hair slower, but almost not noticable on older games. But i dont speak from experience |
| GGKoul:
I think so too... but how bad of a loss... |
| Santoro:
I would imagine that the only *in-game* issues you might experience would be with .CHD games. Even then, I doubt you would notice it much if at all. (this assumes USB2.0 connectivity.) The smaller ROMs will be in RAM once loaded. I am sure someone who has tried it will chime in. |

I played around with one once, and I was able to get two streams of 720x480 DV video playing simultaneously with no lag. |
