USB Disk access "Extremely" Slow
It took 5 Minutes to read my Music directory; connected directly via the same cable it takes seconds.
What gives?
Any help would be appreciated.

I got my AE and Seagate FreeAgent Pro hard drive
yesturday and I have the exact same problem.
If I hook up the drive to the computer directly it is
very very fast.
If I hook it up to the AE it takes about 2 hours to
move a couple fils totaling 2 gigs over ETHERNET!
If I transfer the same files over the same network
between 2 computers the speed is much much faster.
Is this normal or some nasty firmware bug. It almost
feels like the AE is using USB 1.0 for some reason.
i would accept that... except HOW DOES THAT EXPLAIN A
RATE OF 0.1mbps THATS WHAT IM GETTING
Im sick of hearing how usb is slow or wireless is
slow, i bloody know that, but this is neither its
like its doing jack **** at all, a 2mb file refuses
to be sent through the airdisk and if it starts to
work finder freezes up... someone explain to me how
that comes down to USB being restricted to 400mbps
and wireless on 108 and lan on 100, that maths a dont
make sense
