Hello everyone! I'm new here, and I'm not sure what kind of information or logs I am supposed to post, however I will describe the issue I face.
Since 3 years, I've been using MP3 players. On windows, music transfer quickly, however on linux(includes every distribution I've used) copying the files takes too long. The files are copied 1 by 1, and the file manager (thunar) shows the speed of transfer usually around 2mb/s and gets stuck. After around 5 minutes, sometimes 3, the file transfers and then the process repeats with other files.
This ONLY happens with Mp3 players(I've tried 4) and not with USB drives or external harddisks.

I tried using CP instead of the file manager, and it is the same. It is very slow.
I even tried to use different file managers, it is still the same.
Edit:
Some extra information: I use a wire to plug the mp3 player, however other mp3 players use USB and still face the same issue.

try doing a test hdparm from terminal,whit:
sudo hdparm -tT /dev/sdx
[root@prova ]# sudo hdparm -tT /dev/sda
/dev/sda:
Timing cached reads: 23622 MB in 2.00 seconds = 11822.37 MB/sec
Timing buffered disk reads: 282 MB in 3.01 seconds = 93.58 MB/sec

This is what I got:

My hard disk has no problems at all, in fact the speeds were very similar to yours, however what I showed you was the speed of my MP3 player, which is completely normal. The speed shows that a 4MB file should be copied within ~4 seconds, but instead it takes more than 3 minutes per file.
This does not only apply to my system, but other systems as well.

23622 MB on 11822.37 MB/sec is mb/sec
your
2 MB in 2.70 seconds = 758.75 kB/sec is kb/sec
your hard disck is very very slow

Sigh.
My hard disk:
[intro@Trinity ~]$ sudo hdparm -tT /dev/sda
[sudo] password for root:
/dev/sda:
Timing cached reads: 21542 MB in 1.99 seconds = 10814.60 MB/sec
Timing buffered disk reads: 326 MB in 3.00 seconds = 108.58 MB/sec
My MP3 player:
[intro@Trinity]$ sudo hdparm -tT /dev/sdc
/dev/sdc:
Timing cached reads: 2 MB in 2.70 seconds = 758.75 kB/sec
Timing buffered disk reads: 4 MB in 5.23 seconds = 782.73 kB/sec
Do you have any suggestions?

if the mp3 has that speed the evening transfer to the same speed.

Have you checked if the player also supports MTP? If the answer is yes you could try using that and see if it's faster.
