Copying a large file suddenly stops!

[slipd]

Hi guys,

Just trying to copy today's full system backup, 290GB Macrium file, to my external 4TB WD drive and the process keeps stopping at 67%... The transfer speed just drops to 0 bytes and stays there.

I don't use my external drive a lot but it's reading files okay?

Any thoughts?

USB3 drive? I've had that happen before now. In my case a Seagate 8TB external drive, and plenty of space on both drives. Can only put it down to a fault with USB3 drivers.

Thanks! Really weird you should say that, I infrequently get complete USB 3.0 failure on the system in question after some Windows updates. Just stops working; Renesas is it?

Everything appears to be working but obviously the is an issue. I copied/moved files bigger than 290GB last month, no problem.
