Main       benefit with UAS is higher transfer speeds from/to usb connected mass       storage units.              As the device you use seems to have issues with UAS (at least the Linux       implementation), so the option seems to be to relay on the old USB       functionality and the benefit for you would be something that works.              The following numbers based on tests on a Banana Pi:       Seq Write: ~10% slower on USB vs UAS       Seq Read: ~14% slower on USB vs UAS                     // Aho              --- SoupGate-DOS v1.05        * Origin: you cannot sedate... all the things you hate (1:229/2)    |
