Android file transfer windows 10 usb android#

And there are 95 pictures and 100 videos, for a total of 159636475587 bytes (148.67 GiB).Īll the options involving Blue-tooth, Wi-Fi and cloud storage can only be slower than the physical connection, they all have a narrower bandwidth than USB 3.0. The other files are MPEG-4 screen recordings that comes in all sizes, but most of them are between 0.5 - 5 GiB. In case the contents of the files are important, about half of them are JPEG screenshots, all of these screenshots are less than 1MiB in size. If it is a normal drive I would use FastCopy, but here I am accessing an emulated file system through a USB cable, so I don't know if it is the most efficient solution. How do I speed the process, to make it as fast as possible? The theoretical transfer speed of USB 3.0 is 4.8 Gbit/s: 4.8 * 1000^3 bit/sĪnd the performance of that particular HDD: Windows Explorer only moves the files at a miserable 37.1 MB/s. It takes more than 4.5 hours to complete the transfer, I have cancelled the operation, I can't wait 4.5 hours just for the move operation to complete, and even in the unlikely case I could, by the time the operation completes I wouldn't be able to access the computer, it is some 'technical difficulty' I would not go into here. Of course I have a USB data cable, so I inserted one end of the cable to the phone and the other to a USB 3.0 port on the computer, to connect the phone to the computer, and selected 'Transfer Files' in the prompt, and started copying the files using Windows Explorer:

It is filled screen recording videos, and they collectively take 148GiB of space, and I am going to move the files to my 4TB HDD (3725.29 GiB capacity), so that I can free up the space, and I can edit and compress the videos before I post them to my Youtube channel.

My phone is Oppo A96 and it has run out of space:
