Hello,

Does anyone else get a "Working On It" message when opening a large hard drive?

I have a 4TB hard drive with films on and it takes a good 60 seconds to show the contents? The green bar moves along while the display show nothing other than "Working On It"?
 
I assume it should only index once? Power saving options are as default, 20 mins of none use before shut down...

I'll give it day or two to settle down...thought I's see if anyone has the same issue, kinda relieved someone has (sorry!)
 
I still have this problem and have noticed it on another 4 PC's...it can't just be me? A folder can take over 60 seconds to display its contents (granted files with a lot of large .mkv files but still its ridicules!)
 
Never noticed any delay but my biggest movie folder has 256 movies in it, 1.3TB in size, its near instant. However thats on my server.

Interesting, have you (or anyone) tried a large movie folder from a USB 3 hard drive? These are painfully slow for me...

Cheers
