For a contrasting experience, I've had fine success with a couple of
large drives, doing writes that include large files. First thing I
do is newfs them to ext3.

Andreas and I exchanged notes, and it appears that the difference is
that I let my system stand otherwise idle when it's backing up to my
USB drives, whereas Andreas wants to keep his system busy doing
other things at the same time.
