NTFS external drives copying delayed
When I copy paste to my 32GB NTFS formatted USB key, it copies really fast (60mbps). But the USB hasn't done anything yet. It copies "for real" slowly in the background, the 60mbps was just copying from one spot on my SSD to another.
I can't take out the USB or even request it to be unmounted until the light on it stops flashing (and I know it's actually finished copying).
What setting for ntfs-3g do I need to change for this to fix? It seems to happen when I'm copying from an internal NTFS partition on the SSD.
