I have about 15gb of data that I wish to copy from my NTFS external harddrive connected via USB to the ext4 partition of my harddrive. While copying from my laptop's NTFS harddrive the rate was about 20mb/s. In the opposite direction, however, the rate is about 3mb/s. Am I missing something important or is there something wrong?

I just tried the option big_writes with NTFS USB drive, helps quite a bit. Write speed went from 2 MB/s to 28 MB/s and I checked for data corruption after the copy, data was absolutely fine. Following is the command:



sudo mount -o big_writes /dev/sde1 /media/tmp
