I have an external that I usually use for network storage, and I decided to be prudent and make a back up of it. Only problem is, it refuses to take large folders. One single picture transferred just fine, but large folders (at least 12GB, that's the smallest size I tested with) give no copy dialog or anything of the sort. The system just goes back to business as usually, blissfully unaware that I even gave it a friggen command.
Any ideas as to why? I'm going to use my USB install of mint in case windows is the problem here, but I'd really like to understand what could be going wrong. The only thing I can think of is maybe some kind of driver conflict since they're both WD drives, but you'd think nothing would work if that were the case rather than only individual files working.
