AC1900--
Assming the computer and AC1900 are ethernet connected vs. wireless and I intend to copy large amounts of data to a 3.0 flash drive in the 3.0 USB router port, what is a realistic data--machine read/transfer/data write speed cycle per second or minute?
What is typically the limiting overall transfer speed factor?

If you can believe the test results for FAT32 Write - USB 3.0, then you'll get about 33 MB/s (Megabytes per second) for the R7000. TBH, that's pretty miserable. The top performing router on that list can do over 84 MB/s.
I would wager that the limiting factors are a combination of the CPU speed, firmware efficiency, shielding of the USB 3.0 port against Wi-Fi interference and the raw speed of the drive.
