Not that I can see,

After a fresh reboot & plugging in disk I see:

> 1.0 MByte/s is because it enumerates at FULL speed instead of HIGH speed.


Umm. Yes the puzzle is why it doesnt do USB-2 = High.

	shows nothing I might think of as "Force this to USB-2 high speed.

I did a find & grep for Bulk-Only in /usr/src & found
	/sys/dev/usb/storage/ustorage_fs.c	# no keyword quirk

	/sys/dev/usb/storage/umass.c
contains USB_SPEED_HIGH
...
& before
	switch (usbd_get_speed(sc->sc_udev)

dev/usb/usb_device.c
	enum usb_dev_speed
	usbd_get_speed(struct usb_device *udev)
	{
	        return (udev->speed);
	}

But then I'm lost ?

Cheers,
Julian
