Slow USB transfer speeds

[N4RPS]

Hello!

I'd also try seeing which port(s) are USB 2.0, and which are USB 1.1 by making speed tests on transferring files. That will tell you which ports to use for best performance.

For those with ancient 1.1-only laptops and/or only one USB port, they make USB 2.0 PCMCIA cards. I have one that adds two USB 2.0 ports, and a jack to plug in an external power source.

Here's a link to one that adds two USB 3.0 ports. It is CardBus Express, but they make Express to PCMCIA adapters:

I just may pick up one of these myself...
