That the slow down happens after a while suggests that its a temperature

The drive reving I would guess is swapping happening re the browser

hey folks,
I have an external firewire hard drive mounted via the scsi/firewire
system -- I store my mp3's there mainly.
my 3-year-old turned off the drive unit's power switch one day when I
wasn't paying attention (hopefully learned a parenting lesson
there!). Now the drive is still detected
I discovered the problem -- it turned out to be the SCSI chain wasn't
correctly terminated. (or it may have been because I was using passive
termination -- I'm not sure)
I purchased a new internal SCSI cable with an active terminator and now it
works fine.
