Windows 10 slows down USB 3.0 transfer speeds
I have been testing my Lenovo W550s USB 3.0 speeds.
When I am using my backup software Macrium Reflect it can reach speeds of 1Gb/s and average speed for the backup us 600Mb/s.
When I just do a file copy in Windows 10 Explorer, cut/paste or copy/paste I get transfers of High->120Mb/s, average-> 70Mb/s. Quite a difference.
Nothing changes between test on the laptop, BIOS etc. All is the same. So Windows must have a setting that limits USB.
How can I speed up Windows 10??
