How much fast is it? transfering data..

if you have the proper connection, 3.0, its pretty quick. I mainly use it for military documents, and a few movies. But it is def a very good deal

Has the USB 3.0 connection. It transfers data very quickly on my toshiba computer.

It is VERY fast. I have several other external hard drives, this smokes them. It would be faster if I had a USB3 port on my computer, but using USB2 it is very fast. I was so impressed with the first one that this is my second, and I am getting rid of the other non ADATA drives. Most impressive speed.

Hey you can perform copy and transfer but another computing devices is required in between like pc or laptop I feel it's better to connect to laptop or Pc and then perform the task so it will reduce your network usage and hence better speed .

Right, Sometimes is slow transferring data, but I never felt that is slow when I open a Folder.

It is not overkill. If you are going to transfer to your PC or Mac, then the increase in transfer speed is a benefit.

This been formated in FAT32, so 4gb is a maximum to transfer for 1 file. But you can still change its type to NTFS then everything will be OK.

It's a USB 3.0 hub; if you have two 3.0 devices, it will transfer data at 3.0 speed. If one of the devices is 2.0, then that will slow everything down to 2.0 speed.

No, no problem moving data. Just semi-slow because it isn't anything fancy but, it isn't super slow to me either. What's cool is that I can plug my hard drives into it too. Things that didn't work I've learned are my drawing tablet because it requires a wacom bamboo drive etc. can not peform pressure with this. but! Two time when I have had all of them on and runnin something, and plugged in a fourth one! it cut off. I had to ya know restart the computer. So it could refresh its self. So you gotta be a bit easy when plugging in a bunch of stuff. Once it is in there everything work fine. I love mine, blue lights are nice but, can get annoying at night. I love that u can click them on and off it's convenient. I use it everyday! :)

No. The motherboard header you are plugging into is USB 2.0 then that will cap you transfer speed.

G-Technology G-DRIVE with Thunderbolt (0G03124) has a transfer rate of up to 165 MB/s.http://g-technology.com/products/g-drive-thunderbolt

That really depends on what exactly you are editing. All I can tell you is that in a residential environment I have copied about 130GB of large files in around 45 minutes, which is around 48 MBps (probably close to external hard drive max transfer speed). This shows the CPU usage jump to 35-40%. I don't know if this helps answering your question.

The card readers are all USB 2.0. Running a benchmark on a Class 10 SD yielded typical transfer rates of 30-35 MB/s.

If you think you will actually get that transfer rate you will be very disappointed. I transfer a lot of media such as videos & music so I am basing my answer on my own experience. USB 2.0 averaged 30 mbps. With my probox 4 bay I moved up to around 120 mbps on both Esata & USB 3.0. I think the Esata gave me a higher more consistent average at about 120 mbps. I run my proboxs on both W7 & W8.1. Windows 8.1 runs the fastest but my probox will drop out and I will have to hit continue once the drives restart when I move large files. I try to keep my blocks smaller with W8.1 w/I7 processor, basic on board video & W7 w/ I7 processor and 2GB video card never drops out. They both start out on the high end and then slow to around 90 to 120 mbps on larger transfers. I have an 8 bay probox that gives me the same rates even when I transfer media from 2 drives within the boxes. My hard drives are Seagate 3 TB rated at 6GBS. I have a few 2TB rated the same but I have never gotten the rated transfer speed. It takes me about 2-3 minutes to move a 5GB movie. It is a whole lot faster than USB 2.0 is all I can say.

If it's less than 4gb, it should transfer fine. Just to be sure, you could always go with an 6gb or 8gb.

I do not recall. I do not think the rotational speed of the drive would explain such incredibly slow transfer rates I was getting about 10 MB per hour.

this will take some time 50 Gbts will take 10 min due to the early 2011 macbook probably having 5400 rpm hard drive so will not get max speed out of the transfer rates still the fastest way probably 3 to 3.5 hours

Interestingly enough, Seagate has chosen to NOT list the speed of the drive either on the box, on the actual drive or even in the rather skimpy documentation. It is possible that the Seagate site might be able to tell you. All I can say is that it is very quiet and I can't complain about the data transfer rate.

You can transfer up to 800 min.. You can do it on the internet or by phone (not the cell phones)
