    Laptop transfer speeds using USB-C

    Posted by Thomas Kaufman on May 10, 2017 at 5:45 pm

    Waiting around the set for the footage to transfer is a drag. I want to replace my USB 3 laptop with something that’ll give me 10gbps, but I’ve heard not all PC laptops with USB-C are created equal. Can anyone recommend a laptop that has this 10gbps transfer speed?

    thanks,

    If your drives are slow, this will not help you one iota.
