Hey
I have an external hard drive, connected by USB to my computer.
The thing is that reading from that hard drive is really quick, but writing to it can take up to several hours with a few GB. I don't really know if it's a kernel problem, or if it's a problem with the filesystem. The disk is in NTFS, and I'm using ntfs-3g to write to it.
I thought that it couldn't be the filesystem, because I have another hard drive in NTFS and writing to it is quick. But when I was writting this post I remembered that the bus allows writting to the disk a lot faster than the USB.
What do you think? Has anyone had this problem with my kernel version (2.6.22-ck1)?
Thanks for the help
