Hi Everyone,
I'm wondering if I can get any insight on an issue which has popped up after recently formatting and reinstalling windows on my PC.
I have 2 hard drives internally on there, a small SSD (C
where the OS and System Reserved partition stuff is, and another (supposedly) clean HDD (D.
The issue occurs when I try to copy games from a separate external drive (E to the HDD (D. It usually gets 5 - 10% of the transfer done, then suddenly the transfer rate runs down to zero and the HDD (D just hangs. Its supposed to be clean and I've run the windows error checking tool which shows everything is fine, but it will also only allow a quick format, a non-quick windows format results in the same problem, when looking in task manager/resource monitor this is shown as 100% active time, but 0kb/s read and write speed.
Once this happens I can eventually go back into my computer and view other drives but once I visit (D its game over and only way to get this drive responding again is to hard reset. I have noticed it has momentarily commented on start up that it has scanned and repaired (D, and then once I get into windows I can open up the drive and view the files that are in there no problem.
I have tried seagate checking tools and these come up with no errors.
Also note I have copied smaller video files and watched these no problems, but once the file transfer gets above 2 or 3 GB it just doesnt like it..
