I get data transfer rates of ~2MBps on my external writer (when copying)...it's much higher with windows. It can copy a 1.1 GB file in ~1.50 minutes.

Same problem persists with Ubuntu live CD.

Any ideas?
dmesg|grep usb

Maybe try different I/O schedulers. On my phone deadline is many times faster than cfq.
