I have tested my SanDisk Extreme USB 3.0 64GB speeds and it's only around 30-40 MB/s while on my Macbook Pro 11,1 I can get between 155 MB/s and 249 MB/s. Is there anyway to improve read and write speeds?
You have a number of alternate choices to get better speeds with your SanDisk Extreme.
At this point you are probably connected to an Intel USB 3.0 port on your case.
Options :
1. -uia_exclude_ss downgrades Intel USB 3 to USB 2.0 speeds and is associated with USBInjectAll.kext. Remove -uia_exclude_ss and add the USB raise port limit patch to your config.plist (not recommended for a permanent solution). See Step7 here http://www.tonymacx86.com/el-capita...21-10-11-0-10-11-3-skylake-starter-guide.html
2. Create a custom SSDT to either enable or disable certain ports to keep below Apple's port limit of 15. Continue on with Step7+ for more information.
3. Use the ASMedia ports on the rear of the motherboard.
At the moment Post#1 configuration for USB works very well for my needs but I do plan to create a custom SSDT for USB in the future.
