I have two systems, both have 2 x SataII drives 150gbyte C drive, 120gbyte D drive in Each system.
Both systems have identical applications, in fact, they both occupy 15gbyte space on their C drives.
System A - is Gigabyte motherboard.
System B - is an Asus
Both no much older than 3 months.
If system A is backed up, it takes 40 minutes.
If system B is backed up, it takes 7 minutes.
I cannot fathom out why there is such a vast difference in times .
Both system have AMD 5200+, and both are XP32bit each with 3gbyte memory.
I have even defragged both systems drives (although it did not really require it in both cases).
Does anyone know why this is the case - can anyone at all assist.
Many thanks in advance
John Cooper
