[QUOTE="ndeep, post: 1398341, member: 249969"] One thing seems to be helping the issue - I can copy sub-folders much more consistently than the root folders. For example, I have a root folder on the SeaGate called AllSound. trying to copy that over to the newly formatted WD drive results in a hang and freeze. But if I copy individual subfolders from within AllSound from the SeaGate to a newly created folder on the WD, they copy over fine, even if very large: Just got done copying over "Sample Banks" - 53 GB - without a hitch. Hmmm... [/QUOTE]
