The setup is giving me about 4.0MB/s on larger files peek.  The average 
when the file is done appears to be more like 2.5MB/s   This is using 
rsync, from the usb drive to a local drive.  I have been off and on 
remotely using rsync to get files of a remote server for most of the 
weekend.

By the way the NexStar was about $40.00 looks like the cheaper $29.00 
where all but sold out when I was there.

Now if I could just figure out why /dev/sda /dev/sda1 keep disappearing 
when I unmount the drive.
