How many and how much size are you moving at a time?

Size does not seem to matter.The movement STARTS after 9 seconds.
Then it takes notime for smaller files or you see these sheets moving
from folder to folder for an appropiate time.
 
I would be interested in seeing a Disk Defragmenter report. Open Disk
Defragmenter and click on Analyse. Select View Report and
click on Save As and Save. Now find VolumeC.txt in your My Documents
Folder and post a copy. Do this before running Disk Defragmenter as it
is more informative.

These questions are asked to get background information not because I
think you might need to run Disk Defragmenter!

Hope this helps.

Your Reports show that both partitions are formatted as FAT32 and not

as is more common for computers where Windows XP is the operating
system, NTFS. For volumes (partitions) over 32 gb it is generally
recommended that they should be formatted as NTFS. Both your partition

are over 32 gb.


Did you deliberately decide to format the drive as FAT32 or was it
because you upgraded from an operating system ( like Windows 98 ) tha

used FAT32?

Is the computer dual booting? What is on the 16 gb drive?


Hope this helps.

When you make significant changes like the way the drive is formatted is
not possible to guarantee that things won't go wrong so back up your
important data.

Here's another another link explaining how to convert to NFTS.

Hi Gerry,
something else I'd like to mention :
On an external HD of 80 GB formatted in NTFS
I do have the same problem !

Do You still think formatting to NTFS is the solution ?

Perhaps you should look at another aspect regarding the drives.

TryHD Tune HD Tune only gives information and does not fix any problems.

Download and run it and see what it turns up.
http://www.hdtune.com/

Select the Info tabs and place the cursor on the drive under Drive
letter and then double click the two page icon ( copy to Clipboard )
and copy into a further message.

Select the Health tab and then double click the two page icon ( copy to
Clipboard ) and copy into a further message. Make sure you do a full
surface scan with HD Tune.
