USB 1.1 connectors
When you connect the drive to a USB 1.1-compliant connector, video and audio may
be choppy during playback. This occurs because playback is limited by the lower
data transfer rate of USB 1.1, it is not a malfunction of the drive. If you connect the
drive to a USB 2.0-compliant (Hi-Speed USB) connector, you are certain to
experience smoother playback of DVDs.
