USB 2.0 - or not?
Q&A
Posted in Personal Tech, 13th May 2008 08:02 GMT
Is it me, or do the USB 2.0 ports on my laptop seem too slow? I copied some files from a friend onto a USB stick, and they copied quickly. But transferring them onto my machine was very different.
It's a new machine, so it's not like they're USB 1.1 ports, but the speed definitely doesn't seem to be up to USB 2.0 par.
Bad laptop? Bad ports? Or is there a setting I can tweak to put this right?
