Hello,
My 1 TiB USB 2.0 with files of about 70 GB has no any problem in opening the files or copying them to other devices. the problem is that it produces noises when I try to copy files to it or create files in it. If the files to be copied are large, it does not receive. If they are smaller it receives with slow transfer rate.

Thank you for the help
 
Solution
check if your external hdd is in fat32 format if it is in fat32 then change it to ntfs ..... and i think this will do the trick.. and before formatting remember to keep backup..
