For context:
I’m copying the same files to the same USB drive for comparison from Windows and from my Fedora 41 Workstation.
Around 10k photos.
Windows PC: Dual Core AMD Athlon from 2009, 4GB RAM, old HDD, takes around 40min to copy the files to USB
Linux PC: 5800X3D, 64GB RAM, NVMe SSD, takes around 3h to copy the same files to the same USB stick
I’ve tried chagning from NTFS to exFAT but the same result. What can I do to improve this? It’s really annoying.
Oh boy, yes I remember I used to disable that shit ages ago in fstab, that’s quite annoying that’s still necessary!!!
How do you do that for USB sticks?
I’m pretty sure you can just mount it with mount and specify noatime
