WinXP -> HFS+ 10s
HFS+ -> WinXP 23s
External -> HFS+ 37s
HFS+ -> External 110s

It takes about a half an hour to transfer a 700mb file to the External USB. Also if it helps, theres a delay when I try to copy something to the External drive. Finder doesn't respond for mabye 30 seconds before it starts copying.

The finder freezes when accessing or writing to the External NTFS drive write this entry into the system log:

Unlike the slow write speeds, this didn't happen with the earlier releases of NTFS-3G
