Hi, sorry for top post and sorry about the poor english. It is not a flash drive, is an real HD. I search a lot on www about this issue and the only clue i find is about sync/async option when mount the device and verify if it is connected to usb 2.0 hub. The strange thing is if i use windows to copy this diretory (drag on drop), the full operation last more or less two six (copy directory and umount - "eject" - the device), The same operation under fedora last a lot longer. (last day, i let the copy last for a full day and it is not finished - i pause in the middle).
