He probably means 20-30 M byte/sec. 

Some motherboards, when USB 2.0 was still kind of new, have a few
USB 2.0 (high speed, 480 Mbps) ports, and some usb 1.1 (full speeed,
12Mbps)  

To prevent confusion among consumers, the USB comittee decided that 
these USB 1.1 ports should also be called USB 2.0 ports, as they
conform to the slower speed part of the USB 2.0 spec. I prefer to
call them USB 1.1 ports. 

The fact that not "EHCI" but "UHCI" is driving one of your ports
is a strong hint that it is a "max 12Mbps port". 

Try a different connector on your computer.
