@drkwv, your question is off-topic (not related to the issue discussed
here). However if you mount your usb stick with they 'sync' option, then
writes will not be buffered and your progress bar will also show
realistic progress for small writes that would otherwise be buffered.

Title:
Files modified on NTFS partition are seen as corrupted files in
Windows
Status in ntfs-3g package in Ubuntu:
Confirmed
Bug description:
I have Ubuntu 13.10 and Windows 8.1 installed, both 64-bit (dual
boot). Whenever I create or copy files to any of the NTFS partitions
from Ubuntu, these files get deleted once I login to Windows. When I
login to Ubuntu again, the files are not there. I shut down Windows
properly and do not hibernate. I have disabled fast startup option in
Windows, and Fastboot from BIOS. So it is not a hibernation problem.
The same problem occurred when using Linux Mint.
I have been able to find the exact event log concerning this issue in
Windows Event Viewer, it says: "The file system structure on volume D:
has now been repaired." and in the details section:
EventData
VolumeIdLength 2
VolumeId D:

...
Note: "line-mozart.avi" is the name of the file that got deleted this time.
Since Windows sees the modified files as corrupted files that need
repair, I think Ubuntu does something wrong when saving files to NTFS
partitions, and it is probably a bug in NTFS-3g.
