Drive speed

Wierd question but,Can a 2.5 drive in a USB 2.0 caddie be made to run at USB 1.0 speeds or can this only be done by the machine itself?

I have this hdd setup connected to my dvd recrder through it's usb 1 port and when playing 5.1 sound movies it can't keep up with the sound.When playing stereo movie clips it works just fine.

Yes that is what i am wanting to do.My DVD recorder is USB 1.When i use 5.1 movies the sound breaks now and again but picture is still good (when using USB hdd).When i do the same thing using a usb pen it works perfectly with no loss of sound but i am limited with 2gb and one movie.

Yes i am using the same film for both.The usb hdd can send and will run @ usb 2.0 speeds on my pc but doesn't seem to slow down enough (I think) to run smothly on the drvd recorder.

But the problem is not with the pc it is with the dvd recorder. :confused:
