What speed does photos download with a 2.0 USB port?

Given that your computer is not otherwise burdened, you should expect about 30MB/s on a USB2 device like this.

I don't actually know. What I use is a thumb drive with the photos on that and it allows me to load several gigabytes

I have not experienced any issues with the documents and mp3s that I have stored on the device. Unfortunately, I can not address your inquiry as it pertains to photo images. If your PC is currently using the USB 2.0 ports, this drive should be backwards compatible (being a 3.0 device) with it. However, the data transfer rates will be restricted by the speed of the 2.0 port.

Yes, you will notice a major difference with 3.0 compared to 2.0. I was able to copy 5GB of files in about 2 minutes on 3.0 whereas 2.0 would take me about 10+ minutes.

I'm not 100% tech savvy, but I think the major difference would be speed, if I'm not mistaken. 3.0 is the latest standard, isn't it? I think the transfer speed makes the difference, in which case I don't mind this one because I don't have any 3.0 USB items....I'm not much help in this matter, I just needed extra ports because I've downsized from a desktop to a laptop temporarily, so when I saw this I just grabbed it. It works quite well for what it's worth. I'm sorry if it this doesn't help.

A class 10 drive transfers data at 10 10MB/s, this is a USB 2.0 and 3.0 Compatible drive, provided you have a blue USB 3.0 port on your computer, USB 2.0 runs around 30 MB/s and 3.0 in theory is 10x faster, but most likely will max out at around 100 MB/s. If you don't have a 3.0 port you would be better off buying a 2.0 thumb drive for less money.

This adaptor supports USB 2.0 and 1.0. It does not support USB 3.0. The maximum speed of USB 2.0 is only 450 Mbps. USB 1.0 is much much less. This adaptor is not capable of gigabit per second speed and therefore does not offer to the gigabit performance claimed by the manufacturer. Gigabit performance would require a minimum of USB 3.0 to be a true gigabit adapter.

The speed will be limited to up to 40MB/s because of the limitation of USB 2.0.

Yes it is. For small files, you won't even notice the reduced speed of USB 2 compared to USB 3.

Leef Surge USB 2.0 64 Write - up to 15 MB/s; Read - up to 28 MB/s. Thank you

Read/Write speed, how fast you can transmit your files from/to the flash drive

I use a USB 2.0 and it works perfectly fine. Unless you are backing up the library of congress, you will have no problems.

I will test it tonight and see. Last time I checked though it performed at good speeds. But I am only using a 4700rpm drive so I may be maxing out the read/write on it anyways. But from my experience it performs a lot better then 2.0. Also another note is that if you plug this into a 3.0 port you don't need to use the extra USB cable for power. The 3.0 port can put out enough juice to power the whole thing. I didn't know this before I bought and honestly wasn't a big deal, but helpful to know now.

Of course. USB 2.0 will never match 3.0 speed. When the drive worked read on 3 was at least 4 times faster

I do not own the 2 GB version; however, I have two 3GB versions and I love them. Never a problem and they are relatively fast on the USB 3.0 ports. Easy to install, basically plug-n-play.

It will work in the USB 2.0 port, but at the slower speed. That is what I am doing and it is fine.

Yes. USB 2.0 devices work in USB 3.0 ports - they just aren't making full use of the fast transfer rate.
