My brand new machine is giving slow transfer speeds between the internal and external hard-drive. I'm getting 10-25 MB/s even when using
TeraCopy to move a batch of files.
Sometimes it even drops to 5 MB/s!
I'm copying 23 GB of 50 KB - 1MB files, could that be cause of the problem?
Edit: Just tried it with a single 256 MB file and that transferred at around 50 MB/s, so I guess that was the problem.
