Steamos 3.8 beta on Legion Go, everything is working out so far.

It's amazing how drastic some things change. I transferred some files that would have taken windows about 5min, it only took 20sec.

Plenty of resources, space on the drive, still getting used to the differences of UI and settings, but I'm so glad I finally jumped out the window.

I transferred some files that would have taken windows about 5min, it only took 20sec.

If we're talking about storage devices, this may just be lots of caching, which in my opinion sucks for slow removable devices, because the transfer stays in background and you still can't unplug the damn USB.
Though there can also be some difference with filesystems. I can get pretty fast and stable RW with F2FS compared to exFAT on these devices.
