Hi all,
I'm brand new to this list so forgive me if this is a FAQ. I did look
through the archives and couldn't find anything.
On a Linux 2.4.12 system, I'm using a iodata 60GB USB drive (the internal
drive is actually a Western Digital) that supports both USB 1.1 and 2.0.
Anyway, I've got it connected and working with Linux but access is VERY
slow. According to hdparm and real-world results I'm getting just over 1
Mbit access speeds. That is, about 1/10th of what USB 1.1 should provide.
My MB is a Tyan Tiger 133 so therefore only has support for USB 1.1 but,
as mentioned, I'm not getting anywhere near the theoretical limit for USB
1.1.
I've tried both the usb-uhci and the uhci modules and there is no apparent
difference. Anything else I should try?
One other thing, I've had a few system freezes while using USB. They
seemed to occur when doing multiple things at the same time. For example, I
had a large copy running and at the same time tried to do a 'du' and a 'df'
on the USB drive. After this the entire system froze and required a hard
reset.
Any help would be greatly appreciated.
