Copy Speed

Anonymous

I am trying to copy about 500gb. The files are from very small to mega video files. I have tried drag and drop, using free file sync. The destination has been both internal SATA drive and a NAS on a wired network. It will start off fine, but after a short time the speed will drop to 0 or under 10 kb/s.

This is really frustrating!!!

    I had some similar problems and I would like to recommend a tool that helped me a lot with this problem.

    I advise you to try the copy using the FreeFileSync tool.

    It is a simple and very useful tool for these high volume cases.
