so how would a slow 3,5mb/s usb harddrive with even a slower cpu perform?
usb in that router can work faster than 3,5 mb/s
Code:
[root@LesiukNET www]$ hdparm -tT /dev/discs/disc0/disc
/dev/discs/disc0/disc:
Timing cached reads: 58 MB in 2.00 seconds = 29.00 MB/sec
Timing buffered disk reads: 20 MB in 3.25 seconds = 6.15 MB/sec
29 MB/s its 230 mbit
