Which distro/desktop? My standard ubuntu 18.04 with gnome and mounted through the file manager doesn't do this and copying to a slow USB drive is as glacial as it should be, but copying between internal drives is instant and hidden.
- wheybags 6y agoDefault gnome on Ubuntu 20.04. How much free ram do you normally have? If you don't have enough to buffer the whole operation, then it's not a problem.
- flukus 6y agoNow that I think about it, this might actually explain some bugs I've seen when copying multiple files. Copying one file seems to work but then copying a second the progress sits at 0%, it's probably waiting for the first transfer to sync.
