The USB interface transfer rate is dependent on the interface (USB 2.0, 3.0), the USB devicen such as flash drives, and the actual size of the data being transferred. Lot's of small files will have low transfer rate, while the large files should transfer close to the max transfer rate of the interface, if the device supports it.My laptop shows a usb data transfer rate as low as 5MB/s.

You could try updating the USB driver and/or change the USB device, such as flash drive.
