    computer speeds???

    afternoon all, i have just transferred 200 music tracks from my HD to a USB pendrive, then uploaded them to a desktop.

    Now, on my lappy running an i3, 3 gig ram, it took 5 mins to write them to the USB drive, but only 1 min 30 secs to upload them to a desktop with a 2.oghz and 2 gig ram.

    Why?

    i thought my lappy would be quicker.

    mick.

      its to do with read/write speeds via usb, ur usb will be copying to itself slower than a desktop hdd
      Fave replies from various threads

      1: What the fff is all that about??? All that crap below your reply I mean, get a life mate
      2: no info on google abt the pace sv5 rang asda they have no idea what i was talking about,
      3: Your total contribution to this forum, bordering on trolling, seems to have been a collection of snipes, one liners & asterisked expletives

              On the laptop all the files were probably fragmented across the drive so had to be reassembled to write onto the flash drive intact, when being written back as they were unfragmented they could be read much quicker would be my guess.
