I have an external drive. USB 3.0. Now it is connected to my laptop. "Connected to USB 3.0"
USB Deview: "Superspeed"

The problem is that when I transfer a file from the external to the laptop I get 80-97 mbps (mostly 84) pretty slow I consider the connector as the problem.

BUT when I transfer from Laptop to external I only get 10-12mbps. now i know other way transfer is slow on most cases but 12mbps is overkill (in a negative way)
is this normal?

Hello,

Your harddisk might have a slow write speed, or there may be somthing wrong with the harddisk.

If you got a ssd/hhd then test on both.

You could run crystaldisk, to take a look at your hdd/ssd health.
