[ubuntu-uk] USB Memory Stick Problem

[Nigel Verity]

Hi
I've been having trouble with a 32Mb USB memory stick. Whenever I copy large volumes of data in one go the job crashes with an "Error Splicing File" message. This occurs both with the stick formatted as ext4 and also as fat32. Since formatting it to ext3 as a last resort, so far the problem has not reappeared. Knowing next to nothing about the difference between ext3 and ext4 I don't know if I may have found a genuine solution or whether this is just chance. My HDD is ext4, and I'm running 12.04.
Any ideas?
