jzaw Posted January 28, 2008 Share Posted January 28, 2008 takes as long as a normal internal hd here it could be your dvd reader or disk for some reason also it might say 2 hours but should only take 30-50 mins Link to comment https://www.insanelymac.com/forum/topic/84210-does-leopard-install-slow-to-a-usb-20-hard-drive/#findComment-597702 Share on other sites More sharing options...
