Thank you all for the advice. I'll try them out next time I'll do some copying.

(Perhaps it would be a better idea to use an online backup service these days, we'll see...)

Thanks for your replies.
Yes, the purpose is to share and backup some data between OS/2 and Windows computers. Writing from Windows is about hundred (100) times faster  >:(
I use FAT32.IFS that came with ecs 2.0 RC 6a. Also USBXHCD7. USBDock says that the drive is USB 2.0. Have not tried the driver patching yet. And I did have a JFS volume before, but removed it due to lack of space.
Here is the initialisation line:
IFS=H:\ECS\BOOT\FAT32.IFS /CACHE:2048 /H /Q

Hardware / USB disk speed

I am currently copying files to an external USB disk formatted as FAT32, but copying is extremely slow. Copying on the same system booted with Windows works fine.
What USB version is supported by ecs?
Are there any settings to speed up file transfer?
