> But pop installed on my desktop and 2 laptops, it transfers a file less than 1.4gb without issue. Anything larger and it transfers for about 1 hour then faults. I end up with corrupt file on the other side. Ah, yes. I was thinking about /mnt/$USER/directory not having sufficient rights (it happens). Slower transfer speed and failures are something else. > This sort of issue should not even exist out of the box. Basic functionality should just work. Might also be a unique combination between HW and software.

> Might also be a unique combination between HW and software. I thought so, I tried with 2 different external harddrives, but then I noticed transferring on my desktop between 2 internal drives had the same issue. Copying to the same drive / different partition appeared to be OK. I posted on pop_os on reddit and they were gonna help me but I ended up down a rabbit hole which resulted in me on Kubuntu without any issues other than a couple of UI issues which I can live with, and eventually fix.
