My current situation is that I will be away for the rest of the year from next week onwards and will not have access to a workstation, thus needing to rely on my 2011 MacBook Pro. As the SSD is insufficient to accomodate both OS X, Windows 7 and all of the files I must bring, I plan to acquire this drive and use it to boot Windows 7 either via Firewire 800 or eSATA (ExpressCard).
I doubt that an ExpressCard adapter capable of booting Windows 7 exists, so that may only leave Firewire 800. Firewire will bottleneck the performance of this drive by about 25MB/s, however I deem it an acceptable loss. The problem is that I have no concrete instance of someone who was able to boot Windows 7 in this manner.
My apologies for the long post, however it was my intention to ensure that no important information was left out. I would be very grateful if somebody could provide some insight.
