Re: USB 3.0

Copied a bunch of jpeg photos from C drive to external drives. One a Western Digital My Book 1 TB drive on USB 2.0. The other a Western Digital My Book 2 TB drive on USB 3.0.

446 files in 12 folders.
948 MB total.

On drive connected via USB 2.0 it took 1:12.52 to copy to drive.
On drive connected via USB 3.0 it took 18.48 to copy to drive.

That's a lot faster (a quarter of the time or so) and $30 well spent IMO.

Liking the USB 3.0.
