Im doing image backups over my home LAN 100baseT to a 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
