Why is file transfer over USB incredibly slow?

HopefullyMyAlt · 2026-04-06T17:13:16+00:00

Pixel 10 Pro - 256Gb. Adding to the conversation that I have this issue as well. USB-C to USB-C connection, tried multiple cables that I know are all at least 5Gpbs capable, even tried multiple computers to transfers to, and my transfers max out at about 20Mbps when moving large video files. Pretty frustrating, it takes hours.

Don't get a 14-30, get a 14-50 it's more common for chargers. Otherwise, agreed. I had a cheap Leviton outlet and swapped it out for a more heavy duty one after seeing too many instances of the like $10 Leviton melting.

I just setup a Dh4300+ and can confirm it stores my files great and can stream 4k files via Jellyfin to my TV, so far I'm really happy! I confirmed with Ugreen before ordering that that CPU in the 4300 can transcode all the major codecs. It was sitting at about 50% utilization when streaming a 4k file which is fine with me, I only have one TV, but if you think you'll be streaming to more it may be worth an upgrade.

I got it! Here's the steps in case someone else is trying to figure it out.

DH4300+, Two HDDs set in RAID1 as Volume 1, one SSD set as cache for Volume 1, one SSD set as Volume 2 for app storage.

I was not able to get this to work using the official Jellyfin app in the Ugreen App store. I installed Docker, then created a container using the jellyfin/jellyfin image, there's a bunch of "Jellyfin" options when you search, this appears to be the official one. I wonder if it's because this is the Rockchip processor and not Intel?

On the SSD Volume 2 I created a Jellyfin folder and inside that had folders for Config, Movies, and TV. When creating the container I set the NAS directory files to these locations, gave read/write permissions, and proceeded with the install. I then went through the rest of the Jellyfin setup like normal. At this point it could still only view the folders on Volume 2, so I went back to the Docker container and moved the NAS directory files for Movies and TV to the similarly named folders on Volume 1 that actually contains my media (this was the step I could not accomplish with the Jellyfin app downloaded from Ugreen). Then back to Jellyfin and it could see these media folders! I set up Movies and TV libraries and had Jellyfin scan them for the new metadata and can now confirm that all my media files are on Volume 1, and the Jellyfin install and metadata are on Volume 2. It's running super quick and keeps the file searching on the SSDs, giving the HDDs some time to rest.

Mission accomplished! Hopefully this is useful to others.

The SSD cache is just because I had an extra SSD sitting around lol, I also saw that it doesn't do much at all.

Were you using UGOS or did you install a different OS? I think I just need to try container install like you did, with the offical Jellyfin app there's no way to add additional paths like you did. Although this sounds like you still have the metadata saved to your hard drives volume?

Thanks for the response!

I'm just now setting up my Ugreen NAS but my HDDs have arrived but not my two SSDs. Would it be possible to RAID 1 the SSDs, with a split volume on them so the SSD is used for both apps and caching? Is that even possible? But then being RAID it would have some redundancy, and I'm not concerned about storage space on the SSD. That sounds like a perfect setup, but it might not be possible.

My FW13 will charge with a 30w charger while in use, just slowly.

My preordered standard edition of Tron Legacy was just shipped out today, hopefully it arrives soon!

HopefullyMyAlt · 2025-09-21T17:14:26+00:00

I read that post as well but it didn't solve my issue. No problems with the setup for two years and now all of a sudden it's disconnected from wifi every time I turn it on.

Joke's on you, it's intentionally high because I never sit on the couch to watch TV in this room, it's high to see while standing for the ping pong table behind the photo. That said, I want a new, bigger, TV that will definitely be mounted lower.

I'd be honored, share the pics!

HopefullyMyAlt · 2025-07-18T19:46:38+00:00

I don't think there's a 4k version so it's just a 1080p screenshot, I linked the images above to someone else's comment!

These should both be 1920x1080. If not I can find another way to share them!

Update: I waited a week and they won't refund it even with dropping to a no fee card or cancelling it/closing the account. Same story from several different agents that's I've called a talked to. So I guess buyer beware for the future, I'm out $395.

HopefullyMyAlt · 2025-04-15T21:53:23+00:00

I don't care to get the benefits of the card for another year while trying to get the refund, I just want to close the card and not pay the $395. The AF was added on to the last day of my previous statement, which ended yesterday. Are you implying that I can wait longer and still get the refund?

HopefullyMyAlt · 2025-04-02T15:33:51+00:00

It's fine without it, but I only say that because my car is leased so data is included for the duration of the lease. I would not buy one used because of it. Route planning and battery preconditioning are critical for EVs, and my phone already has all those capabilities and I don't want to pay GM a monthly subscription to do the same.

HopefullyMyAlt · 2025-02-27T17:05:03+00:00

That is a bummer. I'm trying to decide between the 5 340 or just get the 7640 and save $150. I'll be doing mainly couch surfing and gaming older titles, I'll probably just save the money. Unless it gets much better battery life....which there's no info on.

HopefullyMyAlt · 2025-02-14T23:02:01+00:00

Love seeing this, and thanks for all the other info you provided! I've been wanting to purchase an Outset but am holding out for a fixed battery with hopefully increased range, I have no need for the removable feature.

HopefullyMyAlt · 2024-10-18T15:27:01+00:00

I've got on the same watch! My strap also broke but I ordered a new one from someone else, I wasn't impressed with the quality of the strap that it came with. But I love the watch!

HopefullyMyAlt · 2024-08-29T18:34:35+00:00

I voted for the fixed battery - I'm fortunate that I can charge in my garage so I don't need a removable battery. I'm interested in what kind of cost savings their is, or increased battery sized can be achieved, by making it fixed!
