Hi, first time around here, so have mercy. 🙂 

 

I am experiencing a very slow (4Mb/s or less), even halting data transfer to an external harddisk. The harddisk is a Seagate, but I also have the problem with a Western Digital Harddisk.

What have I done sofar.

 

With Device Manager, I have removed all usb-thingies, which were re-installed after reboot.

I have checked the external disks with another pc, data transfer was ok, much higher  there. The disks have worked fine with this pc before. 

The only thing I can think of is a recent BIOS-update from HP, last month or so. 

I googled a bit, and some mention that one can adjust the data transfer speed in BIOS. In BIOS, I do not see such a section. 

So.

Please advise how to proceed,

 

Thanks for listening.
