Hi
I bought a samsung SSD drive but in order to connect it to a pc, I also bought a box with which I can connect it to a pc via USB C cable but I don't have a USB C port so I ended up with a USB C -> A 3.0 reduction. I connected the cable with the reduction to the computer to the USB 3.0 port (Blue color) but the speed is like USB A 2.0 and even windows shows me a message that the device can run faster if I put it in 3.0. How to solve this and what makes it this slow? I have windows 10, latest update and drivers updated
#USB 3.0 port is slow as 2.0

if the usb is 2.0, it wud be 2.0.. Otherwise, the adapter wud be to blame

Reduction from USB C -> A 3.0 and the port in the computer have blue color ( I also tried other USB ports) and if the reduction was somehow bad, why would windows tell me to plug it somewhere else?

plugging a 2.0 usb to 3.0 doesn't make it 3.0 nor 3.1, and vice versa

Samsung SSD is USB 3. I assume the Samsung SSD is a T7 as they are the common type of SSD (I have a few on hand and I run VMs from this thing)
I don't actually know the solution as the issue is not occuring for me but just wanted to point this out
Also I don't think any SSD sold these days (except sketchy ones) have USB 2

According to the motherboard manual I even have USB 3.1 ports and I have these drivers in device management. Do I need a different one or install another one? 🤔

So I found that on the front side the blue USB port somehow does not work correctly and on the back side where I have 4 blue USB ports so just at the one that was the last free so it also does not work too and the others yes... so I can finally enjoy a faster SSD and not have to wait an hour to move files
