So, i use linux with kde and was copying some gigabytes of files from a smartphone to a usb device and while doing that the system monitor kept showing that it was writing some mb/s and i got curious, is said writing happening to my ssd or is it just talking about the usb drive?

      Could you please give the result here after you checked? I got also curious if it’s temporary copied to ram or disk before moving.
