Copying files error
Hey guys
I'm trying to copy mp3 and picture files (mostly jpeg) from my computer to my external hardrive, however for random files I'm getting an error message that says "Cannot copy (nameoffile): Data error (cycle redundancy check)" I've reset the computer several times but it hasn't made must difference. Any help would be appreciated Argentis How ya doing, buddy? |

Backuping, are these signs of a harddrive crash?
EDIT: That could work - can't currently test it yet as I'm running the test God I hope I don't lose anything. I was gonna buy a new harddrive in october as well >< There's nowhere I can't reach. |

I hope not.
The errors have gotten particularly worse over time - when copying folders/ albums over to the hard drive it's usually the first file that fails to copy. The error check still hasn't finished I just hope it's resolves the problem :/ Trying to digest this CRC page, it's a little beyond my AS level IT skills. Additional Spam: Ok scan failed to finish (it was the option screen where the Defrag option is right (PC Windows XP)) and how exactly do I carry out this scan? The error message keeps popping up is still there, and zipping doesn't seem to resolve the issue. Copying just on the computer isn't a problem neither is copying from the harddrive. Copying to is still the issue. Unfortunately it is rejecting zip/ rar files as well. I'm having no luck in moving anything. This thing is sticky, and I don't like it. I don't appreciate it.

It's about 2 years old, 320 GB (and a bit of a dodgey fan). I recently defraged it, and it was was fine as far as I could tell. I'll give the program a try
I've decided to replace it, back it up, and re format it (and hence reuse it). I don't want to touch it until I'm ready to back everything up, I don't want to risk continuous power ups. I was speaking idiomatically. |
