According to my information — which may be wrong — openSUSE Leap uses
btrfs by default, and if you're used to other filesystems, then btrfs
is a whole other beast.
I'm not so sure whether dd would be the right tool to use with btrfs,
among other things because btrfs aggressively caches and buffers, in
combination with that it uses copy-on-write. And if you're running dd
from a terminal emulator in a graphical environment, then there's a lot
of data being cached and buffered.
