[QUOTE="Raz0rEdge, post: 1562375, member: 110816"] Unless your iMac has USB3, USB2 maxes out at 480 mbps (mega-bits per second) and that equates to a max 57.2MB/s. Under normal circumstances, you're usually in about half that rate, so more in the 20-25 MB/s.. So in this case, you are right where you could possible be with USB 2.. USB 3 has a theoretical max of 5,000 mbps and routinely hits 70 MB/s speeds. Under ideal circumstances, you could even get up beyond 250 MB/s.. [/QUOTE]
