So it is not the port of the laptop. I run on my Linux phone a lsusb command which shows: $ lsusb -v -d 058f:6387 Bus 003 Device 002: ID 058f:6387 Alcor Micro Corp. Flash Drive Device Descriptor: bLength 18 bDescriptorType 1 bcdUSB 2.10 bDeviceClass 0 bDeviceSubClass 0 bDeviceProtocol 0 bMaxPacketSize0 64 idVendor 0x058f Alcor Micro Corp. idProduct 0x6387 Flash Drive bcdDevice 0.02 iManufacturer 1 Generic iProduct 2 Mass Storage iSerial 3 A430786F ... I interpret 'bcdUSB 2.10' as an indicator of USB 2.10.

(see dumpexfat below, and gpart). Yes, it run out of space by intention. The tool f3write writes as much as chunks of 1 GB until ENOSPC to check how much data really could be written on the key (a tool against fraude).
