terrible write performance when almost full

I'd guess it boils down to fragmentation, like Stephen said. EXT3 is supposedly a intelligent file system, and leaves small gaps of empty space, to leave space for files to grow when changed, such as editing. There really should be a way to defrag the units, regardless of if NetGEAR thinks the performance loss is minimal. But, there isn't.
