Yes, but you should keep in mind that you'll spend extra time when you
want to unmount your USB stick. So I prefer a "slow" transfer and a
fast unmount, because usually I'm in hurry for taking off the USB
drive and the unmounting visualizations are not very smart (only in
KDE SC 4.4 it is really usable).
