Public bug reported: This is only for large files (e.g. movie sized 700-4000 MB)
The file transfer goes quickly (judging by the progress bar) and then hangs a couple MB short of completed. While it's seemingly stuck on the last few MB I opened a terminal and confirmed that the files are completely transferred and I can even md5sum them (which takes seconds) and compare that to the original to prove that they are bit for bit copied correctly. However the nautilus progress window stays open with a hung progress bar for several minutes when it's clearly finished. I've observed it to take as long as 20 minutes in this stage (it will eventually "complete".) The problem does not happen with other USB storage devices on this computer (using the same USB port.) Initially I thought this was a nautilus issue, but it hangs using cp from the terminal (and again I can confirm that the file is completely transferred with md5sum.)
