USB transfer speed slows down and fails during transfer
When trasferring files to a USB, the transfer speed drops rapidly and continuously after about 4-5 seconds. If the file is large enough (~3Gb) it will fail. Any ideas? This really sucks.

Re: USB transfer speed slows down and fails during transfer
don't be fooled by that initial transfer rate, as that is just filling the cache up,
and then you get the actual transfer speed, for the file being moved.
this is one area, where some Linux Systems are not as great as the World of Windows,
& which this sort of thing is designed to work with.
