Hacking Write speeds with G6 Lite

[Rykar]

I've had my G6 lite for a year and it still works great but it has always taken about 40-60 seconds to write a 64 MB rom, this sites review says this

The back of the box claims that writing times are..

32M – 2 seconds
64M – 4-5 seconds
128M – 8-10 seconds

Those times are accurate, if not a little conservative. Writing to this cart is just plain fast. Forgetting the original G6, most flash carts with internal memory have much slower write speeds than this. Depending on your removable media, you may get equal write speeds, but for a cart with internal memory, it’s very impressive. The entire 512MB can be filled up in less than 60 seconds.

All my USB ports are USB 2.0 so why isn't it writing as fast as the review claims?

Edit:Sorry about the typo in the title Edit:fixed -mthr

i think they are referring to megabits, but u r referring to megabytes.

1megaBYTE = 8MEGABits

so do the math for times.

Yes I know that but what about this?

It would probably take around 5 minutes to fill up mine.

512/8 = 64mg, how much does a 64mg file take time to copy on ur G6 Lite?

They're either talking about a 512 megabit file, or they're full of crap. A 64 megabyte game generally took a bit less than a minute to transfer for me.

The transfer speeds you're getting are normal for the G6 Lite.

i tested for u, a 61.3mg file takes 1 minute and 20 seconds to copy for me.
