USB Stick has a slow transfer speed
Ohai. I've got a Kingston Datatraveler 2.0 USB stick. On other PCs (Both windows 7 and XP), I was getting write speeds of up to 30MB/s, averaging around 22MB/s.
On my currently laptop, I'm only getting around 7MB/s for large files, with the peak at 11MB/s. Small files transfer at around 2MB/s which is unbearable... since on everything else it transfers at least at 10MB/s.
I have checked for driver updates (Windows says its fine), and I've also changed it to 'Optimised for speed', or whatever it is. I also uninstalled the drivers, and let the USB reinstall them just in case something went wrong the first time.
So, any tips on how to get transfer speeds on my USB up? Or is this a hardware issue with power distribution of USB ports/motherboard issues?
