To respond to eneles post...

I tried unchecking all startup items from msconfig...
I've also removed Norton360 from my system which was my only security startup program...
I tried the disabling of System Restore on the drive like you suggested as well...

Still have the slow boot up =(

I may just give up on this eSATA thing man. It seems my whole system in general is slower with it connected that way. Is the faster transfer rate of eSATA worth all this trouble and slow down on my system? I may just settle for the slower USB 2.0 speed over eSATA. I'm very frustrated at this point. I don't know what else to do. Any other thoughts or ideas?
