[Feature request] USB 3.0 support for hekate UMS

[ca1e]

Is it possible that USB Mass Storage support 3.0 speed?

It does support 3.0 speed you need to read the instructions and apply the reg file to you computer, please read the initial page

USB 3.0 setting is for Atmosphere. Not for Hekate itself which author is referring to.

Eventually I will add superspeed support to UMS.
Especially now that I mitigated the issue with ASMedia usb controllers on Linux/Mac OS internally.

I just swear what UMS was NYX feature, and the reg file on releases was to get the full speed, for me, using Nyx I can make a full emuNand partition backup in 17 minutes, and using a USB 3.1 card reader took only 10 secs less.

29.1 GB in 17 min is ~29MB/s which is well within USB 2.0 spec speeds.

Well with a good sd you get ~39-41MB/s reads on ums. The issue is writes that become 2/3. But it's still a good speed.
The only reason I consider solid and useful for having superspeed support is for users that want to do full SD card backup/restores.
There it plays a big a role.

+1 for this feature. I'm getting steady 26MB/s for whole card backup and 60+GB takes 1 hour. Unfortunately, I don't have an sd card reader around.

Isn't the USB-C port on the switch implemented (from a hardware perspective) so it CAN only run at USB 2.0 speed even thought the connector it self is capable of USB 3.0?

[impeeza]

Connectors are nothing more than a physical connection media, they do not allow or deny speed (mostly) by example USB 2.0 can use traditional USB-A connector and you can use full speed or normal speed.

since USB 3.0 there is a new set of connectors (some of them retro compatible) which introduces extra pins needed to achieve new protocols which helps on the new set of speed. by ultimate is the USB chip control and his software the one responsible for the negotiation and use of the correct speed.

big N have a "Propietary" USB implementation but by the latest firmwares is able to use USB 3.0 speeds.

[paulober]

@impeeza Yea but i mean how the connector is wired up to the internals and the controller restrict its speed. So you mean the internals actually support speed up to USB 3.0?

[impeeza]

Ok, that can be true but on the Switch implementation all the signals of the USB-C are connected to the driver chip, so no restriction at all, you can get confused because almost hardware mod concentrate just on the D+ & D- signal and ignore the rest because they are useless for mods. but the others signals are used by the driver and the TV output signals.

If the controller or the port were restricting the speed to 2.0, HOS wouldn't be able to use 3.0 either.

And Bluetooth and Wi-Fi 2.4GHz is not a issue in hekate (since hekate doesn't support wifi and Bluetooth in first place and is not needed)
