How to increase data transfer speed of your pendrive?
You might think that all the USB devices are same, but that is not the case. USB devices come in two variants. One is the USB 2.0 that has a transferring speed of 35 Mbps. The other one is the USB 3.0 that has a transferring rate of 625 Mbps.
If you own the USB device that you purchased around three years ago, the chances are high that you are using USB 2.0. Are you frustrated by the slow transfer rate of your device when it comes to transferring large data? You can’t increase the transfer speed drastically, but you can doubt it by following few easy tips.
