I have tested the installation of openSUSE 13.1 in an external media, first I installed the OS in an USB Flash drive 2.0 connected to a USB 2.0 port, the installation was successful but it took almost 3 hours to complete the installation, once installed, I proceed to make some test, the system was running as expected to a good speed, but when I tested to install some packages, samba + base development pattern, It took 73 minutes to install.
The second test was made with an external hard drive 2.0 connected to the same port in the same computer with a laptop hard drive of 5200 rpm into the enclosure, this external drive has a power adapter, I made the same test as before, but the installation completed in 20 minutes and the installation of samba + base development pattern was complete in 6 minutes, my question is, Will an USB 3.0 flash drive work as fast as the external hard disk if connected to this USB 2.0 port?
