Dear Shawn, "dstat" does essentially that. Default is one line of output every second, which means the output equals the MiB/sec throughput of your device. Try "dstat -D sda,sdb". You can also adjust the delay; see the manual page. -- file transfers on USB disk are very slow https://bugs.lau

Martin and Murz, maybe you can get help if you open up an individual, detailed bug report. Given that this 184-message bug report is over one and a half year old, I'm afraid adding comments here does not help. This bugfix works, I've just tested it: http://www.microsoft.com/windows/windows-7/de

Who wants my Hardware? Since I can't use my USB drive (I cancelled the last attempt to copy 6GiB after more than one hour and less than 10%): Whoever wants to do further testing or bugfixing: You get my 16-GiB USB pen drive for for free! I can send it to you worldwide in a cushioned envelope.

Hi Kurt, albeit the AHCI-mode enables the use of Native Command Queueing (NCQ) for some mainboards, I somehow doubt that this has to do with the USB issue. Especially because of the "swapping" you reported which IMO has nothing to do with the USB speed issues reported before. -- file transfers

This is an additional time invoking "dmesg" a few minutes later; the difference (one line at the bottom) does not always appear and I'm not sure if this is correlated to the speed problem. ** Attachment added: "Second, later version: output of "dmesg"" http://launchpadlibrarian.net/23765342/dme
