Finding slow transfer rates to existing 4 gb Sandisk Cruzer drives, about 4min for 1gb. Bought some new HP ones just in case the issue was the drives and same thing. Transfer rates to my regular external drives are fine at about 1 min for 1 gb. Mentioned it to a friend and he lent me a memorex 2 gb travel drive and it was fine at about 1 min for 1 gb. Tried formatting for Mac OS and did not change the speed. The only difference I can tell is that my drives are FAT32 and his is FAT16. What gives?
