Copying to external Hdd very slow
Hi all,
I have a I5 desktop 8gb memory, with a 256 ssd startup-disk (C:\) and an internal Hdd 2Tb (D:\) where all my files are stored.
The windows-version is 10 pro.
Now i have an external Hdd 3Tb connected via USB3 to my pc.
I 'd like to make a 1on1 copy of all my D-drive to the 3Gb drive.
So i open explorer and rightclick on the D:-drive and select "Copy".
The in click on the 3Gb drive and in the right pane i rightclick and select "Paste".
A small windows then opens and the files are counted before the copying begins...
Then i see a transfer-rate of about 350 bytes/s !!
The last time i tryed this, it had to copy about 370Gb of files .
After more than 24 hours it was at 57% !
Is that a normal time for this ?
I must say that the majority of files is quit small (around 60Kb/file)
But it looks very slow to me...
Am i doing something wrong ?
Can i speed things up a bit ?
Thanks for thinking along...
Bye,
Luc
