You suspect correctly.
The USB 3 family starts at 5 Gbps. All but the cheapest boards have at least
one 10 Gbps USB, either as USB-A or USB-C. Some at the back, some as a new
internal connector for a USB-C socket at the case front. Still rare are USBs
with 20 Gbps. But I think your board was quite a good model, no? I tried to
find it out by perusing old threads, but they are a bit confusing at times.^^
I found mentions of Asus Prime X670-P and of Asus B550 Plus. The former has
a 20 Gbps socket, the latter only provides 10 Gbps.

You need a common denominator. ExFat is a good candidate, methinks, as it
won’t give any issues with file permissions. Since I’ve never held an iOS
device in my hands, I have no idea about what FS they support. But the
answer should be just a short DuckDuck away. :)
