I think it's more related to USB peripherals than to the disk drive. Well, I'll run the same test on new SSD when I install it on my system.C:\Users\user>winsat disk -drive c

So today I did the test on W10 and my new SSD with the same cable. Sadly the transfer speed has not changed too much. It's still near 54k kilobytes/sec on SSD->HDD copying and 60k kilobytes/sec on HDD->SSD copying.dadreamer wrote:Well, I'll run the same test on new SSD when I install it on my system.
Currently I don't have another one SSD to do SSD->SSD test. But it seems to me that the drive read/write speed is not the reason here. USB 3.0 host controller might be responsible for these limits.> Disk Random 16.0 Read 287.63 MB/s 8.1

I can confirm that both USB 2.0 and 3.0 Windows Easy Transfer cables work perfectly on Windows 10 without installing any additional drivers by Prolific. Although the user has a choice of installing additional Prolific software PCLinq5 which also installs Prolific drivers. These drivers change almost nothing in the system if standard winusb.sys has already been used.ghisler(Author) wrote:Recently I have tried that cable with a freshly installed Windows 10: Although Windows 10 no longer supports the Microsoft Easy Transfer software, it recognized the cable immediately when I plugged it in. I was able to use it with Total Commander to connect to a Windows 7 system without installing any other software.
