To see how much each of the 8 cores are being worked? OK, I'll try that later.
My guess is that one core will be maxed :-)
What is missing in my explanation of the situation to keep the issue of USB2 being brought up?
Somewhere you mentioned that you did not have/see this issue when you used USB2 or some similar words. We said that using USB2, as it is slow itself, you do not hit the problem that you see in your table of ntfs-3g being slow.
Ah, so that is what those references to USB2 were all about :-) .
Right!

Actually, there may be more to all of this than meets the eye - to use an old cliche.
I bought the Seagate because I bought a 2TB WD just before Christmas and I could NOT copy files to it without getting errors - with the screen going blood red in mc and the HDD being unmounted. These errors occurred when copying to either the ext4 or the ntfs partitions on that WD. The errors I would get were: "kernel I/O error (5)" most of the times but there were other very similar ones. And after battling these hassles for 3 months I got fed up, swore never to buy another WD HDD and went out and bought the Seagate a couple of days ago.
Ouch. I only buy Seagate myself. But they have bought out several manufacturers, I lost count of them. Means they are better than the competition, but once the competitors disappear, they will have no reason to surpass themselves... I'm off to bed. - -- Cheers, Carlos E. R.
