The fastest transfer rate I got for a USB 2.0 hard drive (WD, Phantom, and many others I've tried) connected directly to my computer is ~12000 kB/s with an average of about 7000 kB/s. All these hard drives are usually advertised as having up to 50 or even 100 MB/s (not kB/s).
Over a home network with a winXP server I have average transfer rates of 1200 kB/s.
Is this normal? What transfer rates should I be having for direct USB and server data tranfers? I have brand new supped up computer with dual core processors and 4GB ram.

It is the USB interface that is inherently slow. Check the chart in link below:

i've got faith they're the comparable speed with the aid of actuality that they use the comparable style of port to pass. the excellent thing concerning to the exterior confusing tension is that it has lots greater area than a flash tension.
