for some reason when I copy or cut , files then past them, from any were in my PC to a flash-drive
the transfer will stop at 5 sec to go for about 5 to 10 min. this happens' with all flash-drive not just one. I can not seem to figure out why..

ASUS rampage Iv extreme mobo, Intel i7 3930k CPU, 16 gig's 1800 DDR3 G.skill ram, 120 gig Kingston SSD, 10,000 rpm HDD, 1000wat P.S, water cooled CPU, window 7 ult OS. EVGA gtx570HD GPU

thank you for your time sincerely trickedout

make sure your mb has the newest bios..there been some usb patches for asus mb. also are you using a hub or from the usb ports itself???

I have some additional questions for you. If you haven't tried all of these, please try them and reply with your results.

Are the USB sticks USB 2.0 or 3.0?
Have you tried USB 2.0 and 3.0 ports?
Have you tried an NTFS formatted drive?
Have you tried moving files in safe mode?
If you copy a 1k file are the symptoms the same as if you copy a 10GB file?
