fatxfs /dev/sdc /mnt/f --drive=f
cd /mnt/f
rsync -ra /mnt/ftp/games/ /mnt/f/games
I got error as below:

I'm having a comparable problem, tried to delete all files/folders from the FATX F partition, it shows 'operation not permitted' even though I'm root.
Actually, for some weird reason; when opening the folder in the GUI of Ubuntu, I was able to delete some of the files.
Only "Marvel Nemesis - Rise Of The Imperfects"
and "Phantasy Star Online Episode I & II" don't seem to be able to be deleted in any way.
Maybe related to the "-" and "&" in the file path?

Same problem here, some files like "c_drdmk1_bat1.wav" (KOTOR) refuse to be copied. Using another windows non-free app I get to copy those files to the F partition but I can observe that even that app has a drop in the MB/s that arrives to 0, but after 2 or 3 seconds, as I said, it gets to copy the file. It can arrive with large files of several GB to others of just 40 Kb. It is really a mystery. I even tried to slice those large files (under 3 and 2 GB) and recompose them on the F partition and for whatever reason, the fatal message appeared*. Any hints?
*It appears more or less at the part correspondent to the bites wich pressumably active the error when the file is being copied without slicing , if the file is lets say, 3 gb and the problem arrives when 2,8 gb are copied then the slice number 1 and 2 will pass but not the third one, acitivating the error when 0,8 gb have been already copied, further forensics are impossible but lack of time
If I partially copy one problematic file and then I retry without erasing it (with another name) same happens, wich makes me thing than it is like a cursed bit of the file, but it goes unnoticed when using other HDDs WITH another filesystems (fat32 for example)
EDIT: the other program now says the file is corrupt too. I tried with ddrescue, no luck neither, so I guess that sometimes s*** happens and yo can do nothing about it, but it is clear to me that it is not a fatx error , so after MANY hours of research, I could say that this topic should be marked as solved, as it is a file problem, not a fatx one

I am also encountering this potential defect although I am running into it using pyfatx.
This can be replicated using the docker container I created as part of a project I'm working on. https://github.com/jeffbrl/ogxbox-image-builder. I am populating the E driver using the "clean" E drive zip file floating around the interwebs.
