Which Would Be Faster

[TheSiege]

I have my mp3s on my server and it only has usb 1.1
i have a new mp3 player which is 20 gigs and usb 2.0
my computer has usb 2.0,
my question is this would it be faster to
transfer the mp3s over the network to the mp3 player
or just hook it up to the server and use 1.1
im not going to save the mp3s to my computer and then transfer
im just going to go straight from the mapped drive to the mp3 player
thanx

yes

perhaps,
USB 1.1 is 12Mbps,
Network connections can be 10, 100, or 1000Mbps. If you have a 10Mbps network, then NO
Wireless "b" is 11Mbps, NO
wireless "g" connected at 54Mbps, yes.

i have it setup to go 100

Then you are better off with the network transfer with the player connected to your desktop and a usb 2.0 connection. The 100mbps connect will be able to more than adequetly handle the load of the usb 2.0 connect.
