Hi just a quick question regarding this external hard drive:
http://www.amazon.co.uk/Passport-Es...e-Drive/dp/tech-data/B004445JK4/ref=de_a_smtd
It says it supports USB 3.0, will this work on the new mac air as USB 3.0 or only 2.0?
It's because I read a review online which had this in its last paragraph:
"In the AJA system tests, the 38.2MBps speed it obtained in the read portion pushed it near the top of the class of drives that weve tested. As previously mentioned, the My Passport Essential offers USB 3.0, which is unfortunately not supported by the Mac, but will work with the Macs USB 2.0 ports."
Cheers
