The intent of this forum is to discuss my DOS TSR programs (available at http://bretjohnson.us), how they work and don't work, new/missing features, status of updates, and anything else related to them that may need to be discussed.

how speed up usb data transfer

Postby iw2evk » Tue Apr 23, 2013 6:59 am

Hi Breth,
i running your usb software under freedos 1.1 on pentium 700 mhz notebook.
The max transfer rate from/to usb device it's about 60 kb/sec.
Exist a setting to speed up the data transfert (expecially form usb keys and usb floppy disk)?

Thanks

The only way to speed it up is with the /X:# option. The default is for it to be one (1), which is pretty slow but tends to be reliable. You can speed things up by increasing the /X value, but you may get a lot of "Abort/Retry/Fail" error messages. Depends on the disk, though, and some don't have a problem running faster.

I hope the next version will have those problems all solved.
