Re: Tranfering data from SD card to external drive via Laptop
I just want to add a little to what PeteC2 said.
Most Flash Memory readers, even internal, connects by way of an internal USB header. So not only is the SD transfer, most-likely, going to be slower than even a 4,200 RPM hard drive, but it could be painfully slow if the specific USB header isn't USB2.
If I remember correctly, USB1 is around 12MB, USB2 is like 475MB and the upcoming USB3 is something crazy like 5GB. Those numbers are just approximates... not law! |
