First of all, my apologies: I've seen a tons of forums related to this topic, but nowhere did I see a solution to this problem.
I've switched to Linux only recently and my biggest issue about it is the PC to USB transfer speed. While transferring the files, I see the bar getting stuck at random times and then filling up again after some time. This reflects on speed.
So, any suggestion?
usbmount
is installed, if so remove it.
