How do I optimise USB devices on macOS Sequoia 15.4

To avoid a session of Q&A, Q&A  and Q&A  

Download the Application Etrecheck ( External Link ) directly from the Developer.

This is a Diagnostic Tool that makes no changes to the computer.

It makes a coherent and readable inventory of both the Hardware and Software used on the computer 

The application is free or paid for added features.

I have seen Hubs that down-speed all devices if one device is USB2, but that doesn't explain the directly connected devices.

Take a look in System Information on the USB section to see what speed they are connected. You can open System Information by holding down the Option key and selecting it from the Apple Menu. If you see 480 Mbps in the speed section, it is connected via USB 2. Besides trying a different cable, I don't know how to resolve that problem.

How do you know WHAT it does to the computer?

I know 3 things

1 - I know the Developer is Trusted and makes an appearance on these Forums from time to time

2 - I know because I us this application on 3 different M-Class computer and previously on older Intel computer

3 - It has been reported from Reliable Sources that this same application has been invoke, from time to time, by Apple Support Technician

I have used Etrecheck on several different Macs over several years and it has proved to be a very reliable diagnostic tool. I really do not understand why certain ASC users keep attempting to discredit Etrecheck. If they have had a technical issue with it they should provide feedback to the developer. I'm beginning to wonder if these users are the same person but using different Apple Accounts?

Interesting observations, that are best left as observations, until proven otherwise 👍

Because some people don't know what they are talking about. It is as simple as that.

Thank you and others who came to my defence from an individual who seems to have " evaporated "

a little knowledge is a dangerous thing

As many of us do know, the application is a good way to avoid a " game of 20 questions " to quote another user 👍

Nope

You are welcome

What is even more important IMHO

What you do with this information as it is related to the computer issue being experienced ?

Good eye, there’s one person that has at least had a dozen different handles that has it in for the app or the developer.
