It is possible your laptop has USB full speed not USB Hi Speed. USB Full Speed is actually USB 1.1 rebranded, but is used for marketing purposes. If access to the drive is very slow, that might be the problem.


It is a Samsung P28 XTC 1400c. According to their product site it should have 4 USB 2.0-controller. However, if I interpret the output of /proc/bus/usb/devices correctly then there are two slow ('Spd=12')
and two fast ('Spd=480') which match - as far as I know - usb 1.1 and 2.0 specification.

Matthias

they do, that is true
