noatime & nodiratime will not make any noticeable difference for the
transfer of just 1 big file, and a lot of people here reported that
symptom... Besides that the problem arises with non-ext volumes too.

I don't know if is just coincidence or luck, but I had this problem with
my 64 bits system, I reinstalled Ubuntu and replaced with the 32 bits
version and the problem is gone... Now I can achieve stable 10+ MB/s
with my pen drive and 20+ MB/s with my usb sata disk.

Just in case it is useful:

$ uname -a
Linux vs-note 2.6.27-10-generic #1 SMP Fri Nov 21 12:00:22 UTC 2008 i686 
GNU/Linux
