I would not let the USB 1.1 deter you from getting an older unit.
Unless you have a lot of churn of your content, the slower speed
doesn't matter much. If you're going to install a larger drive, just
load it up before you put it in the JBR. Then all you have to suffer
through is the occasional addition.

I've acquired several of the older units for friends, loaded their
drives before installation and they've been happy as clams in sauce.
After all, a slow JBR is better than most any alternative!
