About USB 3.0
USB 3.0 has a maximum interface transfer rate, or bandwidth, of 5 Gbps
(Gigabits per second). The performance depends on many factors including:
CPU, file system overhead, number of attached USB devices and more. Given
these and other factors, in day-to-day use you can expect maximum,
sustained transfer rates around 55 MB/s (Megabytes per second). USB 3.0 is
backwards compatible with USB 2.0 and 1.1. This means you can connect a
USB 3.0 device to USB 2.0 port, and vice versa. However, interface transfer
rates are limited by the interface with the lower speed. If you plug the SoloPRO
into a USB 2.0 port on your computer, data transfer rates will be limited to USB
2.0 speeds (up to 480 Mbps).
NOTE
: The cable supplied with your system has been optimized for
performance. Longer cables may not work or only work intermittently.
