Since I already have DriveWire, I don't know if option #1 would be a
sufficiently compelling upgrade. I think option #2 would be much more
interesting, despite it being far more pricey an alternative.
Of course, since I am Mac rather than Windows-based, I guess I
wouldn't be buying anything at all. So my opinion may justifiably be
ignored! ;-)
