Hi all.

I'm looking for a way to transfer movies from my phone to my pc. At the moment I use USB3 but it's pretty slow.

My phone is USB C and my motherboard is https://www.gigabyte.com/Motherboard/B550-AORUS-ELITE-V2-rev-10-11/sp#sp

My board appears to have enough pcix to slot a card into, or it has a USB c header on the board.

My rear panel has these connectors
  1. 1 x DisplayPort
  2. 1 x HDMI port
  3. 2 x USB 3.2 Gen 2 Type-A*/USB 3.2 Gen 1 ports (red)
    * For AMD Ryzen™ 5000 Series/3000 Series Processors only.
  4. 3 x USB 3.2 Gen 1 ports
  5. 2 x USB 2.0/1.1 ports
  6. 1 x Q-Flash Plus button
  7. 1 x RJ-45 port
  8. 1 x optical S/PDIF Out connector
  9. 5 x audio jacks
could I just buy a cable as a short term solution?

would I better with a front panel docking station?

Or a new card that will pop into the pcix?

I'm confused and just wanting fast data transfer speeds.

Thanks all.

What transfer mode are you using? PTP / MPT / Mass storage / Android Auto?

That can make some difference.


As an alternative option though, set up a network share on your PC/NAS, and then you can copy files over Wifi using a file manager like CX File Explorer. This would at least rule out the USB as the source of slow transfers.
My phone says File transfer/android auto.

Can you explain the network share thing for me please?
