IIRC there was the famous "HEAD" vs "head" problem.

Also, the index is prone to get out of sync when accessing the USB drive 
from different Operating Systems, since the inode information is 
different.

Which means that earlier, the files appeared changed whenever accessing 
them from another OS, and now with the automatic index updating, actions 
take much longer.
