Greetings, |
2 |
|
3 |
since my old 64 GB Verbatim USB sticks became too small, I bought two |
4 |
new 128 GB Philips sticks. Because I need to read and write them on |
5 |
both, a stand-alone Windows laptop (not connected to the internet) runn- |
6 |
ing Windows Vista and Cygwin and my Gentoo laptop, I encrypted them with |
7 |
old TrueCrypt on the Windows box, using them under Gentoo in TrueCrypt |
8 |
compatibility mode. |
9 |
|
10 |
This worked well with the Verbatim USB sticks (which probably are USB |
11 |
2.0), but while reading the new USB 3.0 Philips USB sticks is signific- |
12 |
antly faster than reading the old Verbatim USB sticks, writing to them |
13 |
is slow as hell under Gentoo. And writing to the Philips USB sticks on |
14 |
the old Vista laptop with USB 2.0 ports clearly outperforms writing to |
15 |
them using the Gentoo laptop's USB 3.0 ports. |
16 |
|
17 |
This could be a problem with TrueCrypt/VeraCrypt or with somehow miscon- |
18 |
figured USB ports. To check for the latter I provide below all kernel |
19 |
configuration variables I regard USB related in the hope that some know- |
20 |
ledgable people might find a glitch in there: |
