USB 2.0?

Hi,

I've got an old Dell (4 years old) with USB 1.0 and 2 HDs. The OS is Win XP Pro. It is still fast and has a lot of memory. I started using a new Seagate external HD to back up my existing internals. Backing up with USB 1.0 is extremely slow.

Can I upgrade to USB 2.0 ports? Does it just involve plugging in a card?

If so is there a specific card that is better than others?

Thanks,

George D.
