Ipod USB2 speed question

[jamie2497]

Hey all,

Just built my new system with the Asus PN5-E Sli and have downloaded all updates, service pack 2 etc.
Now im trying to transfer around 20GB from my Ipod Hard drive and its taking about 40 minutes, does that sound right? or are my USB ports not running at USB2 speeds?

Thanks

Well most real-world benchmarks I can find put USB2 data transfer at around 17-20MB per second, which works out under 19 minutes for 20GB. So yeah, yours may be a little on the slow side.

Hmm, im not sure what to do then According to the drivers they are the SP2 microsoft ones and the device does say Enhanced.
