Increase the maximum data transfer size of USB storage devices from 64 kilobytes (KB) to 2 megabytes (MB) in the Usbstor.sys driver.

Estimate transfer of up to 7,500 songs per hour to your new computer. USB 2.0 Hi-Speed (480Mbps) and fully backward-compatible with USB 1.1 low-speed (12/1.5Mbps) Windows 7 32- and 64-bit certified ...

In this first part of a series on USB-C, [Andreas Spiess] takes us through the theory of USB-C and USB Power Delivery (PD), as well as data transfer with USB-C cables.

By default, a USB-C cable plugged into a USB 3.1 port can transfer 10 gigabytes of data per second. Plugging into a 3.2 port will get you 20 gigabytes per second.

And yes, some cables are for charging only, and some will transfer data but only at USB 2.0 speeds (very slow) and some are just not very good or work poorly with certain phones/devices.

With that in mind, the USB 3.0 Promoter Group — which counts Apple, HP, Intel, Microsoft, Texas Instruments, and others among its members — just announced another USB-C specification: USB 3.2.

A USB-C connection can charge devices up to 20 times faster than basic USB. USB-C ports support USB Power Delivery, a fast-charging standard that can deliver 100 watts of power to compatible devices.

With USB3: All USB-C ports must transfer data at either 5 Gbps, 10 Gbps, or 20 Gbps. USB-C ports must have a charging power between 4.5 and 15 watts, and must be able to handle at least one display.
