I was just wondering. When you have two external harddisks connected via Firewire 800 to your Mac, and you copy from one disk to the other will the traffic pass via the Mac or will it be from disk to disk?
Practical setup is Powerbook G4 + 2 x LaCie Extreme 300GB Triple interface drives.
I will have this setup in a few days and this came up doing some calculations on maximum throughput when backing up databases.
Thx
