Little confused with what's going on, moving files is very slow

[pschuman21]

So recently I decided to start moving files off my C drive (ssd) to an another drive (a hdd) within my PC. The weird thing is, when I go to move the files, which some are only around 2gbs, they drop off at around 50% and start lagging the system; whether i'm trying to play a game or just browsing the web; my PC will start freezing up. Sometimes 'Explorer' will crash or come to a stop for a good 5mins. I tried moving files over my NAS via private network the same way and I don't run into much issues at all. I've done I think some good troubleshooting via 'defrag', 'trim', 'disk clean', etc; what's also weird to me as when doing this operation, my C drive is hardly doing anything, my CPU isn't maxing out or throttling, & memory is usually below 50%. Besides with this going on, the PC runs at it's overclock of 3.9 just fine with no crashes or anything else happening.

 

So any theories or guesses into what might be happening would be really appreciated.

 

My specs just in case it might help:

 

-Currently running newest Ver. of Windows 10 64Bit with all updates applied

Ryzen 5 2600 (overclocked to 3.9)

32 GBs of RAM

Gigabyte X470 MO (Latest BIOS Installed)

MSI Radeon RX 580

[C:] (Intel 660p 1TB SSD) [system drive]

[D:] (Toshiba 1.5TB HDD) [Mics drive from an old laptop]

[E:] (Western Digital 500GB SSD) [Game Drive]

[G:] (SanDisk 128GB SSD [Game drive from a laptop]

[I:] (Seagate 8TB HDD) [backup & mics]  < - Drive I want to move files too

[K:](Kingston 120GB SSD) [Movie drive from a laptop]

 

 

If any other information is needed, just ask.

 

Thank you ahead of time for anyone that looks at this!

All drives are Healthy (Good)

 

I should put that in my post, huh.

Have you tried copying instead of moving?

I remember i had a similar issue, but don't remember how i fixed it.

 

Have you tried copying the stuff to a different drive, and then copying to the hdd from there?

I did try to just coping as well, same thing would happen.

But no, I haven't tried a different drive then move to the final drive, I will try that out soon.

Tried the lasted idea, same thing occurred.

I have decided to move what I needed over to my NAS for the time being.

 

If anyone else has any ideas later down the road, I'll check back within a week and see.
