USB trasnfer rate to WD MyBook Extremely slow
I'm currently in the process of backing up the active user to a western digital mybook except the transfer rate is like 3 mps a second. I checked to make sure the drivers are updated. The laptop is brand spanking new maybe a month or so old.
I don't know whether I'm using usb 2.0 but I assume I am since the laptop is new.
I'm using the basic cable that came with the mybook.
Laptop hard drive only has about 20 gigs of space left.
External HDD only has 160 gigs outta 958 gigs left.
I'm using a third party software called allwaysync. it's the latest version.
Nothing else is running except mcafee antivirus.
I am at a total loss of what it could be. Any suggestions?
