transfer speed of USB on a Dell PE2650
Greetings, I thought that an external USB hard drive would make a good backup device. So I did some trial file copies. Even though the servers USB ports are USB2.0 and the hard drive enclosure is USB2.0 I was getting a little less than 1MByte per second of throughput. I do have the ehci device as well as uhci and ohci configured into the kernel. But looking at the boot messages I do not see that it finds an ehci device, only an ohci. Has anyone gotten a full USB2.0 throughput on Dell PowerEdge server hardware?

I haven't used Dell servers, but I've gotten 25MB/s to a USB-attached hard drive on a Dell laptop, so at least some Dell hardware works. :-) Colin Percival ___ freebsd-questions@freebsd.org mailing list http://lists.freebsd.org/mailman/listinfo/freebsd-questions To unsubscribe, send any mail to [EMAIL PROTECTED]
