    Not sure how slow, "slow as hell" is, however it is quite normal for a USB flash drive to experience slowness, at least in my experience.

    Especially when transferring large numbers of small files rather than a single, large file. Something about how it writes the files takes a good bit longer, and it can take... 2minutes for 130 files, where it takes only 20 seconds for 1 file. However, both are the same size.

    Perhaps you could try a large file and estimate or check the speed?

    If you have, and its just the drive being slow in general, then I am not sure.
    However I am just saying I thought mine was slow after also transfering word documents, three of them, and it taking around 15 seconds or more.

    Then I transfered a large picture, and it performed that action in about 10 seconds.
    The picture was more than 30 times the size of the word files.

    I just accepted it as overhead processing and directory making slowness..., but I'm not sure, perhaps it is a problem.
