Testing USB Speed

[DiscoKandy]

Hi,
I'm not convinced a couple of my USB ports are operating in 2.0 mode, is there an application or tool for measuring the speed at which each one is opertaing at ?

I'm not sure about that but when I had an older mobo I'm sure it told me that a device (say a USB2 flash stick) was operating at lower speed and to try another port to get full speed out of it - not sure if that's much help tho

If you are running windows... plug in a device that you know is USB2.0. Windows should pop up with a message saying "This device is not running at its full potential speed" or something similar...
