Hi All,
Nothing new. Many people have done similar tests in a more or
less controlled environment.
I do not make any claims of these tests being representative.
The results might have been affected by a variety of factors,
and I ran only 1-2 tests for each configuration.
However, to me it gives some impression of where the bottle-neck is.
Setup: Fujitsu P5020D with a built-in SD-MMC card reader:
O2Micro MemoryCardBus FLash Media Drive
Card: Sandisk Ultra II, 1GB (rated at 9 MB/sec ).
Under Windows XP Pro, in one window of Windows Explorer I choose
93 .PEF files (924 MB) -> copy (Ctrl-C) -> paste (Ctrl-V) in another window.
I tested 2 configurations: 1. builtin card reader and 2. USB2 connection
to the *ist DS body with 1.02 firmware.
I copied those files both ways.
Card->comp Comp->card
1. bultin card reader: ~ 8 min (2) ~ 11 min
~1.9 MB/sec ~ 1.5 MB/sec
2. USB2 cable to DS: 180 sec (2) 355 sec
(5.13 MB/sec) (2.6 MB/sec)
(2) - indicates 2 tests giving similar results.
