I have a samsung QX411-W01. Stock HDD.
I bought an Adata C103 USB 3.0 16GB flash drive.
Why are my transfer speeds only around 10MB/s according to windows's standard file transfer window. (I assume that is byte, not bit)
Do you think my HDD can only put out 10MB/s? (it is only 5400rpm) Do you think there is something in the pipe to the flash drive? Or, do you think that the flash drive is the limiting factor here? Is there a test that I can do to find out?
I was hoping for about 3 times this in speed, so I was a little disappointed when I found my transfer speed was so slow for 1 to 10gb files. This is my only USB3.0 device and I wasn't expecting like 600mB/s but at least 50.
(Before you ask, yer, I am using the 3.0 port)
