I have a 5-6 year old laptop that has only 2.0 ports. I have two CF card readers, 3.0 and 2.0.
It seems that when I plugged the CF into the 2.0 card reader using this old computer, the images took much longer to load or refresh. But with the 3.0 card reader, the image would show, and come into focus in about 1/4 or less of the time required with the 2.0
I thought that the 3.0 card read would only be speed-beneficial on a machine with 3.0 port.
No?
