Ok 2.5Gb via USB 2 took exactly 2mins 15sec, so if I am not mistaken it should take you far less than 6 hours to transfer that amount of data.

@spikeyjac you have to remember that when you writing to flash memory its slower, if you not using a mac I wouldnt worry to much about firewire vs usb 2, as USB 2 is going to be cheaper and I will fair at the same speed as firewire.
Like luke said its something to do with the drivers in mac, here is an interesting article I just read. Hope this helps.
