I have TOSHIBA Portable Hard Drive STOR.E BASICS

My Problem is :
Reading and writing data -20 MB/Sec .. and its using USB 3.0 !


And i thought the problem caused by deleting the factory files that attached with the hard drive .. Because when i bought it i deleted the partition and made two partitions .. So the files that came with the hard drive was deleted


P.S : I formatted it to NTFS

So it may cause this slowness ?
and how to solve it ?
and how to get this files again if i need it ?

Deleting any data that was already on the drive would not cause slow data transfer. The pre-installed data was just a bunch of non-essential utilities for security and/or backups.

I don't know how long you've had the drive or how much of your data you've modified or removed from it during that time, but the slowness may be down to data fragmentation so try defragmenting it first. If that makes little or no difference, test the drive with SeaTools for Windows: http://www.seagate.com/gb/en/support/downloads/item/sea...
