Transfer !!!

The data transfer from PC to USB or from USB to PC depends on 3 main factors

1.Type of files being transferred
Music,video and office file will be
transferred with a much higher rate compared to application files, you must have experienced this.

This point is common for any
device, older pendrives have a very slower rate of transfer
3.Port version of the USB
Nowadays almost every pendrive is a USB2.0 device when such usb is inserted in a old system which has a usb port version of 1.1 the data transfer will be drastically reduced Well the above 3 factors can not be controlled but there is a simple 3 step process which can give you the max out of your pendrive

pendrive click on tools and then
