There are many factors included in calculating that. You could have other programs open that are accessing the hard drive, the speed of your hard drive, the speed of your computer, the speed of the USB device, the type of USB device it is, the size of the file(s) you are copying, how much data you have on the usb device already, if your USB device is utilized as ready boost, and even some other factors all determine how fast your device will transfer data.

What I see in the video is what appears to be data buffering. I do not know why the buffering.

I would test that hard drive for errors. It might be time for a new hard drive.
