I actually have one of those and it's worked fine for over a year. I haven't noticed it being particularly slow.

Thanks, Gud. I was going off one commenter's note that it took 20-30 minutes for 50 GB. I don't know how fast or slow that is. Now that I think about it, that may be faster than my current setup, which seems to take almost that long for half the data.

Sir, it's not an offence to let your cat eat your bacon. Okay? And we don't arrest cats, I'm very sorry.
It loads, but the formatting is very rudimentary - almost everything is on the left side of the screen. (Well, the top 2/3 of the page, anyway.)

Yeah, that's what I was thinking.
The page looks totally different (and better) in IE7.

I get the same as tommyrot. So I think the answer is that it loads, but not correctly.
And, yep, it looks fine in IE.

Is it common for something to work in IE but not Firefox?
