1) I got what seemed like an excuse for a response, nothing useful such as a work around (such as turning off write caching for NTFS partitions). Surely you can understand that I was very upset for loosing days worth of work!
2) NO, I would not have the same thing on a Windows PC. I would not loose any data, because the source file is not deleted until after the write is completed! If I lost some, it would only be 1 file, not the entire supposedly completed move. 3) I cannot use ext3 or fat32 for the usb drives. They must be compatible with windows systems and support over 2gb file sizes. 3) No, I did not recover very many files successfully because it happened 3 times before I realized I was actually loosing data, therefore much of the data was overwritten. It's possible some of it is still on the source drive... Though I'd expect it to be overwritten too. 4) I will install kerneloops.
