As a side note, I’m editing with ESATA II and premiere is dragging on my Dell M90. But only when I edit externally.. it works fine off the internal drive. Standard DV has rate of 5 MPS, and I’ve heard of several editors streaming to, capturing to, and editing from USB 2.0 Drives. I would also try defragging both your Drive where premiere is loaded and your USB drive. There are other issues you may have to look at beyond that but that’s a good first step.. however what’s NOT a good first step is replacing an expensive piece of hardware based on a hasty conclusion with little or no exploration.

I am currently having an issue with an internal Seagate Barricuda via eSata.
Playback is really choppy, this is the second 1 TB drive in two weeks to do the same thing.
Western Digital 1 TB with 16 mb cache
Seagate Barricuda 1 TB with 32 mb cache.Both via eSata, both going to onboard eSata connection as they will not be read via the PCIex card on the motherboard.
500 GB Seagate Barricuda that I replaced works just fine, take out the 1 TB and put the 500- GB back and all is good.
I can capture to the drive fine, no dropped frames, I can copy the files over to the other Seagate Barricuda 500 GB Drive and playback fine.
Playback of any and all video files on the new 1 TB drives is slow and or choppy….If anyone else is having issues with this, please let me know.
