Am trying upstream kernel v4.20-rc4 (2e6e902d185027f8e3cb8b7305238f7e35d6a436).
Not easy for a newbie because your link does not include the order in which the modules have to be installed. Downloaded the low-latency (whatever that means) packages and managed to boot the new kernel. It seems less slow (glacial speeds rather than continental drift speeds). I realize copying 3TB of data will take some time (two days 4TB to 4TB as opposed to two months 4TB to 8TB). Am copying just one directory (about 100.9GB from 4TB to 8TB) to see how many days it takes. I am using the Terminal copy command since Caja is 3x slower. Cannot yet say if fixed or not - time will tell. Getting properties on folder in a 4TB drive is much faster than getting properties of same folder in a 8TB drive - so something is still wonky. You say "If the mainline kernel does not fix this bug, please add the tag: 'kernel-bug-exists-upstream'." How? I see buttons to add attachment but nothing on how to add tag. -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Kernel Packages, which is subscribed to linux in Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1802821 Title: Serious design flaw using large external drives. Status in linux package in Ubuntu: Incomplete Bug description: I am trying to recover data from an HFS+ files system on a 4TB external USB 3 drive. Copying 3TB from the 4TB HFS+ drive to a 4TB NTFS drive using MATE Terminal cp -anR from to took 2 days. When I try to copy the same data to a 6TB NTFS USB 3 drive the results are glacial. 750GB has taken over 6 days. Obviously there is a problem of scale drive in Ubuntu MATE. I invite the developers to plug in a 12TB drive and see just how glacial (no - not glacial, more on the order of plate techtonics) slow their design is.
