    I believe Firewire 400 is slightly faster than USB2, but it is negligible. If you are on a Mac I would suggest a Firewire 800 connection, since this is about twice as fast as the other two.

    Beyond that it is a good idea to use an internal drive for a scratch. Nothing but the OS and Apps on one drive. Partition the second drive to hold working files and scratch. Then archive and backup to externals. That is what I do at least.
