Hi, I am trying to determine what if anything might be wrong or can be
done on a mythbuntu 12.04 64bit box, write speeds to USB sticks seem
painfully slow. This is true of both front and rear ports and to
different sticks, which will perform much better on other boxes. As
examples, copying of a 700MB iso file is generally taking around 5:30
minutes where as same stick on a "good" box is more like 1:30. The times
I have measured are for the displaying of the file copy dialog box to
disappear, and have shown variations of +/- 30 seconds however the "bad"
box seems painfully/noticeably slow, maybe a third the rate of the
"good" box.
Some info from lshw, lspci and lsusb -v below, can anyone suggest what I
should take a look at from here?
Cheers,
Roger
