USB 3.0/3.1 implemented

I’ve looked around this forum and it seems that usb 3.0 is not supported when running the server in windows and also the client on a windows pc.

I also noticed that running the server on a Linux pc and client on a windows pc does support usb 3.0 but at a max bandwidth of 40mb/sec?

Has true usb 3.0/3.1 (5gb/10gb/sec) been fully implemented yet on either the windows server version or Linux?

I’d like to purchase this but I will be mainly running usb 3.0 peripherals with this and would like a true usb 3.0/3.1 support.

Please let me know if this is already implemented or has a set date to be supported in a future update.

Yes usb 3 is fully implemented (including bulk streaming) in the VirtualHere Linux Server, and the VirtualHere OSX (Universal) server.

USB 3 is also fully implemented (including Bulk Streaming) in the Virtualhere Windows client.

All other combinations have most USB 3 support in there, except for the bulk streaming part.

So basically use a Linux server, a UASP disk, and a windows client and you will get about 60-100megabytes per second throughput. You wont get more than that because of network latency, even in a wired LAN environment.

How much bandwidth would it be from a windows using the server?

Also, I take it that all the usb peripherals I use have to have Linux drivers in order for me to use that on Linux and be able to share to a windows machine?

Alright reading that post is good.

One question though. I will be running 64bit Linux on a NUC instead of a raspberry pi that I mostly see in the forum. Would running the NUC have more performance than the test subject’s raspberry pi?

One request/suggestion. Me being a developer I like that this has its own API that I can use in my own .NET program. But my suggestion is simply this - since the server app knows the license number that is needed to be copied and pasted into your website why don’t you instead have that already configured within your program so that the user only needs to hit the payment button and not have to mess with copy and paste? To me, again a programmers view, would be an easy implementation without hardly any coding and in turn saves the user who wants to purchase your product the hassle of doing all of that on your website.

Again just my thoughts/suggestions about it - but I do hope your do something like that :)

Actually it already does that :) In the client, right click on the server and select Properties -> Buy

It doesnt have that button from the main license screen (USB Hubs->License...) because there can multiple servers connected at once...

Yes the NUC will provide slightly better performance as intel cpus are faster than the pi4
