Get a notebook IDE adapter and take the drive out of the DMS and put it directly on your host computer's IDE bus to transfer the files.

Are you using the USB 2.0 cradle?

would allow you to hook a laptop drive (inside the DMS for instance) to your PC's IDE controller and copy files faster.

As always use with caution...
