I recently attempted to back-up a large amount of video files on my Toshiba External Hard-drive. When I transfer the files to hard-drive all seems to go smoothly.
However, when I attempt to play the transferred files (from the external hard-drive) it only plays a portion of the file (eg: if the video is 20 minutes it only plays 12) I have moved the files on the hdd back onto my computer and the files themselves then have the same problem. So it appears that the files are being corrupted by the transfer to the external HDD. I ran check disk, defragged and even reformatted the hdd, but I am still getting the same problem. Any ideas?
