What affects the process of copying files

Asked By Margaret 0 points N/A Posted on - 08/14/2011

I possess a lot of files to be moved. I want to copy the files from my external hard drive. Copying is really a long process, it's only 1 MB / S even though it already wears a Teracopy. I'm thinking about what affects the copy process? Whereas before the copy process is fast at 15-20Mbps.

What is wrong with my computer?

What affects the process of copying files

Dear Margaret,

Nice to see this question here. Please don't worry about this issue. Sometimes we really encounter this kind of problem. Not only when it comes to copying, sometimes we also find that our computer is working very slow.  Now,  please press ctrl+alt+del, next, open task manager, then click process. And also, check how many programs are presently running. If you see that some unknown programs are running, then, please stop those programs and see what happens. Maybe, you will get a better performance. Another thing, please check performance tab and see how much is CPU usages

Please apply this process and if you get solution then, please reply with thanks.

Yeah, I was already panicking, I'll try to check it again in the Task Manager and find out what programs are consuming large resource. 

Thanks a lot, Lawrance.
