Yeah already did that. Guiformat defaults to 32k cluster size. Hekate does the same. I had previously formatted it with 64k clusters since bigger partitions tend to hold bigger data and so the performance with 64k cluster can be better. That's also (gnu) gparted defaults.

I already benched the SD card again but the results are mixed. Sometimes it reaches 3k iops than other times it barely manages 2k. Usually 4kib random read performance is better than sequential 4Kib read... Only the 16Mib tests are constantly fine with about 90MB/s

I conclude that's the quirks of this sd card (Lexar 1TB msd). It is advertised to work perfectly with the switch and the reviews don't tell otherwise. But here I am. Just want to copy data from it over USB \__(o_o)__/

It takes like another 6 hours until I restored all data to it. Copies with 12-20MB/s. V30 my ass.
Are you using latest version of Hekate? there is a improvement for larger cards.
