The hub is showing USB 1.0 and the drive is showing usb version 2.0. So is HUB the culprit running at usb VERSION 1.0? If so, how do I enable the 2.0 version of usb hub? Thanks J S Sahambi

I have a Iomega 20 GB usb hdd. It gives good data transfer rate when used with windows. But when I use it with linux, the data transfer rate is low, in the order of 500 Kbytes/sec. Is there any way to increase the data transfer rate? Thanks J S Sahambi
Without actually thinking through the numbers, my first guess would be that it's a usb 2.0 device, and you only have usb 1.1 enabled in your kernel. Does that seem possible?
You might install the usbview package and see what it says about transfer speeds.
