How to increase pendrive data transfer speed

We are all using pendrive to store the data. it  is a most essential one in now a days. Some pendrive's data transfer speed is might low.Data Transfer speed depends on many factors. If you send videos or music the transfer speed is high compared to application files and exe files. Also if you are using older pen drive your data transfer speed is low. Now a days all the pendrive is 2.o device if you use it 1.1 old computer usb port version the data transfer is very low. By changing some default settings we can increase the speed of data transmission speed. 



SIMPLE STEPS TO INCREASE DATA-TRANSFER SPEED
ALWAYS USE NTFS FILE SYSTEM
We can't send larger files (4GB) if the pendrive not in the NTFS mode. So right click on thependrive and click on format and select NTFS and don't use the quick format. Using this settings format your pendrive.



CHECK FOR DISK ERRORS
Right click on the pendrive and click on properties. Under the properties tab of pendrive click on tools and then click on "check-now" button under error checking menu.  Now click on START it takes some time to check the disk error depending upon the file size and format.


CHANGING DEVICE POLICY
Right click on the pendrive and click on properties. Under pendrive properties tab click onHardware select your usb device and click on properties a new window should pop up in that window click on change settings.

  
·        Now click the policies tab. Then select the Better Performance and click on OK.


NOTE : If you Click better Performance you must always safely remove the pendrive whenever you eject the pendrive. I recommend you to remove the pendrive when it is not used.
