I searched the forums and it seems no one has either tried it or at least they didn't post about it. This fall I will be commuting every weekend to see my girlfriend and I don't want the hastle of bringing my whole rig to her new place. I could get a laptop but they are pretty expensive and she has my old vid card and memory and stuff in her comp anyways so it's a fine setup. Do you guys have any experience gaming off of an external hard drive? I'll probably be playing BF2 and Rome: Total War. USB2 would be a dream to work for gaming but I know it's highly doubtful and I could certainly spring for Firewire to get the job done. Thanks in advance.
