USB 2
Do you know if your Sony has USB 2.0?
Does your desktop have the USB 2.0? Maybe it's the reason it's not doing it?
How about saving a file in your Laptop's hard drive versus the external just for a test?
I would suggest you set your video card to 16 bits if you can.
I don't see any problems with the fact that your Maxtor is spinning at 5400 but you would need the USB 2 or Firewire to get the best performance.
Good Luck
