How the heck do testers squeeze 35MB/s out of USB 2.0?!
USB 2 has sucked on Macs since they enabled it, but has gotten significantly faster since the change to Intel machines. In Windows I believe the USB drivers are in a less constrained part of the OS. I have not had the hardware and time to play, but you will likely get faster USB performance if you boot a MacBook Pro into Windows and run some benchmarks.
Barefeats showed over 30 MB/s in 2008.
