Transfer Rate Between 2 Sata6 HDDs on Motherboard
I have an older Asus board (5 yrs), and it has 2 sata6 ports on it. I have 2 drives hooked up to them, 1 is a 1tb Crucial MX300 and the other is a 4tb Hitachi HUS7240. Both drives say Sata 6Gpbs on them. When moving huge files (1-2gb) from 1 to the other, in this case to the Hitachi, I only average 15MB/s.
Seems awfully slow. The only thing I can think that might be choking this down is the cable I'm using. 1 says Sata6 but the other doesn't.
Thanks.
