Moreover if bug creator is not able provide more datails he can mark bug
as confirmed. If you mark all the time as "Incomplete" it is just your
private rule, not Ubuntu. It also means you gain power which never
should be assigned to you.

Title:
Low write speed to USB disks
Status in “linux” package in Ubuntu:
Confirmed
Bug description:
Using a Kingston DT Ultimate G3 (32GB) the "Disks" tool shows write
speed about 7 MB/s !!! After start benchmark this tool shows write
speed about 17 MB/s but immediately goes below 10 MB/s. Same low speed
during copy e.g. 3GB file manually to USB 3.0 disk. This does not
occur on read, only write.
Similar low write speed problem is for disks:
- Seagate Expansion Portable Hard Drive 500GB (model inside ST500LT012-9WS142)
- Verbatim Store 'n' Go SuperSpeed USB 3.0 Portable Hard Drive 500GB (model inside ST500LM0 12 HN-M500MB)
I report this bug from PC, but the same bug is on my laptop Asus X55U.
Even the write speed on my laptop is more important to me.
What I found about this bug (VERY IMPORTANT NOTE):
- In old realese 12.04 LTS disks works OK.
- In 13.04 disks works faster than it is now in 13.10.
- If disk is formatted as NTFS the write speed is the lowest.
- If disk is formatted as EXT4 the speed is x2 better.
- If disk is formatted as FAT32 is low too.
- No matter if disk is connected via USB 2.0 or USB 3.0. The low write speed is always the same.
- This problem doesn't exists in Windows (so this is no hardware or BIOS problem).
- This problem doesn't exists in OpenSUSE (so this is no hardware or BIOS problem).
- No matter if there is UEFI. Laptop Asus X55U has UEFI but PC has not.
- Hardware - no matter (same is on laptop ASUS X55U, I report from my PC now)
- No matter if Ubuntu is 32 or 64 bit mode.
