Okay, thank you, I'll try that (in (33 - 24) hours ;-) )

I'm getting 13k bps writing to a Toshiba 3T drive over a USB/Sata

I mounted it async but then see that ext4 ignores the async option on
mounts.
What am I doing wrong?
Probably nothing, other than using a faulty port/cable and/or faulty drive.
Have a look at dmesg and syslog for I/O errors.
Have you tried a different port and different USB cable? Unless it is an
eSATA, in which case you will need an eSATA port/cable.
