time machine restore from USB?

[herooftime2]

Quick question...if i install a new hard drive in my macbook, can i restore from time machine (using the install disc) with an external USB drive or is it a feature like target mode which requires firewire? Thanks!

yes, you can restore perfectly fine from an external usb drive.

It'll work and it's surprisingly fast for a USB device restore.
