About USB
Actual connection performance depends on many factors including: CPU, file system
overhead, number of attached devices and more. Given these and other factors, in day-to-
day use you can expect maximum, sustained transfer rates to be less than the theoretical
rates maximum rates possible with the connection.
USB 3.0 is backwards compatible with USB 2.0 and 1.1. This means you can generally
connect newer devices to older devices. However, interface transfer rates are limited by
the interface with the lower speed.
NOTE
: The cable supplied with your system has been optimized for performance. Longer
cables may not work or only work intermittently.
