Gd evening. Basically, we have a USB (external) HDD on a PC on our network, the data transfur is fine and fast in explorer, however exploring through the folders of the drive is extreamly annoying - it takes about 6 seconds for the folders /subfolders to show up. this is only happening on this usb drive across the network, the pc that its connected too is fine, hdds can be read easily Any help much apreciated thanks
Hi, i have this same kind of problem, slow over network, but fast when on the same pc, i think its because of the amount of files in a folder, and it makes accessing slow over a network.
hi thanks for reply. regardless to teh amount of files or folders the waiting period is still extensife. i ran scandisk on the usb drive but it didnt find any errors
