    USB 1.1 runs around 12Mbits, I think really old USB 1.1 might have been even slower
    USB 2.0 runs around 480Mbits

    Most flash drives I've seen when I was looking for mine ran between 8-25MB/sec reading and somewhere similar/much less than that writing.

    So therefore, assuming its plugged into a USB 1.1 instead of a USB 2.0

    1.5MB/sec instead of the advertised 8-25MB/sec

    12Mbits become 1.5 MBytes

    And mine seems to be a little faster on checking.. about 3-4 seconds for 6 html/word files.
    However there is still some overhead when transferring each file in writing/reading. So if you have 200 small 8kb text files, which will be around 2mb. They will still take longer to transfer than a single 4mb music file.
