Sabrent USB-G1000 Reviews

REVIEW BY: jim Reviewed Mar 16, 2008

please explain how you can receive 1000Mbs over usb that has a max of 480Mbs. even if you can have 480Mbs moving in both directions(dont know if Sabrent USB-G1000 is possible) that would be 960Mbs. i need 1000Mbs one way for downloads over a gigabit intranet

Jim. You can't get 1000Mbs over USB since the max bandwidth is 480Mbs. Sabrent USB-G1000 device merely allows you to connect to a Gigabyte network, as stated. However the 480Mbs connection is still much greater than the 100Mbs connection you normally have. If you MUST have 1000Mbs then you need a PCI card and you simply cannot use any USB device. Even Firewire tops out at 800Mbs. Half a gig transfer speed is still 4x better then a 100Mbs LAN connection so this is a great improvement for anyone with no free PCI slots on a Gigabyte network.

Not exactly plug and play. Required driver download from Sabrent in *.rar format (StuffIt will extract). Functions as intended. A bit more difficult to install than expected based on what is advertised. I gave it a low quality number based on the installation.
