Say I've got 10 gb/s transfer speed on my USB hub and 10 gb/s read/write speed on the drive, is it then capped on that speed or does it cap earlier than that?
I was thinking about getting an external ssd + hdd for my laptop's measly 1 TB :P, but after learning about the existence of external cases for ssd/hdd's, that seems like that'd be better or am I mistaken?
Just wanna to understand how to get an optimal external drive setup + transfer speed for both external gaming + 4k media of larger sizes up to 50 gb (or 300 gb too cuz I recently learned how bulky skyrim modpacks are xD.) that I can use on my laptop and even desktop.
I googling around and 10 gb/s was the easiest to get transfer speed aside from expensive 40 gb/s thunderbolt hubs. (My laptop does have those hubs)
