terrible write performance when almost full
Hi, I own a NV+ V2, and have been loving it so far. My issue has happened recently when the device is almost full. Basically, I can not write the last 70 GB free on the device. I have 4x spinpoint ...
Maybe you can try comparing read speeds on the older files with read speeds on the new files. If it is related to fragmentation, then the old files will still be read at the original speeds.

And I would love to get something in the MB/s area, If copies don't timeout completly, explorer or the finder depending on OS usually show transfer rates in the single KB/s, so I think it is something more than just fragmentation.
Not sure why you are determined to completely fill the file system though. The normal rule of thumb I've seen is that ext3 performance drops rapidly when the volume exceeds 95% full.
