>From what I googled, it appears the 'noatime' option implies
'nodiratime' as well.  I was able to specify this option in the
USB->Properties->Volume->Mount options.  It seemed to work when I
transfered two 4.2GB movies but I'll keep an eye on it -- I'm not sure
it's fixed in my case.  Also, this issue is showing up in other distro's
as well (fedora, arch linux, opensuse).  Just google 'usb file copy very
slow'.  Some users in these posts think it's a kernel issue, but I don't
know enough to say for sure.  Coincidentally, I have 2 x64 machines -
one with 8.10 (older box with the original installation) and one with
9.04 (newer box with all the latest updates).  Interestingly enough,
I've never seen this issue in the 8.10 box and I've been running both of
them for months.
