Are you sure it's 1.2GiB? The RPi comes with 5Gb/s USB ports, which is 596MiB/s

Now that I think about it, Linux may be caching writes, but even then double the write speed compared to the read speed seems weird.

Oh, I didn’t test on a pi, just a mac. And yeah the double write speed was super weird. Thanks for answering my internal question about why ~500MiB seemed to be the max.
