Thanks for your quick reply, colin

but same drive works fine with M$ windows, on same PC ( dual boot ). it 
copies same file quickly, and I'm able to eject it as soon as copy 
process completed. But it takes long time in Ubuntu it takes dual time, 
like  copy time + safely remove message progress bar time

both windows and Ubuntu are 64bit version and installed on same laptop ( 
dual boot )

Thanks
