Bug Description

I'm trying to copy my music collection (~130GB) from one external hard drive to another. At the start the transfer rate is ~21MB/sec and the further it goes, the transfer rate is going down to ~2MB/sec. I couldn't figure out what the problem is yet. The CPU and RAM usage stays normal an the only thing I can see is the sinking transfer rate. The first time I copied the files for a backup, it took me about 11 hours and I think this isn't normal.
