Your PC has USB 2.0 ports, and they’ve served you well. Talk about compatibility keyboards, mice, printers, scanners, joysticks, digital cameras, flash drives what couldn’t you plug in? Talk about performance well, that’s where USB ports 2.0 are merely passable they limit data transfer speeds to around 25–30 MB/s. For most peripherals, that’s perfectly adequate, but when you connect an external drive and expect great performance, that bottleneck is a problem video editing, backing up, and other data-intensive activities suffer as a result. Enter Sonnet’s Allegro USB 3.0 PCIe, the bottleneck breaker! This Sonnet host controller is based on the new USB 3.0 standard that offers up to 10x the performance of the decade-old USB 2.0 interface. |
