Every USB storage device I've ever used, including on USB3, has been
slow and unreliable regardless of the theoretical limits of a USB
bus.
Take the USB2 480Mbit/s theoretical performance: have you EVER got
60MByte/etc to a USB disk, even as a streaming read? And then try it
for random writes, and compare that to SATA-II doing same.
Like the popular Meatloaf song goes,
I'll use USB for keyboard and mice and wifi adapters and and.. but
I won't use USB for storage
Cheers,
Andy
