Stor.e Basics 1 TB USB3.0 & 2.0 transfer speed slow drive HARD Portable on Windows7

Hello, I recently bought a couple of these bases Stor.e 1 TB USB3.0 & 2.0 HDD Portable of pcworld, bought 2 drives good previous experience, but now I think that because this is a new batch of discs (made in June 2012, instead of dec 2011 my last work entirely without problem stor.e Basics portable HARD drive) I now have the problem of slow start & stop/pause when the transfer of large files medium size 2GBs to 5GBs each (or more) of my Windows 7 laptop to laptop HARD drive using the USB 2.0 standard.

the previous player without problem (made in Dec 2011), when the file transfer starts the application used to start at about 40 MB/s then falls to about 30 MB/s and stabilize all about this speed, these lots of June 2012 starts slot 20MB / s and falls below 5 MB / s.

but that is not the big problem, the big problem is now transfer is in pause/stop and departure, transfer of a few seconds, then stopped for 10-20 seconds and agains starts, then stops / pauses, so used to take the couple minutes portable portable HARD drive transfer a file of 4 GB, but now takes ages (7-8 minutes or more) because of the slow speed and stop/pause & start the problem.

I haven't changed anything on my laptop Windows7 and other drives of 1 TB per other manufacturers/brands are fine, so that means Toshiba must have changed some hardware or software/firmware of the player, lastest new problems, new batch, batch previous everything was fine.

At first I thought it was just 1 player that could be the problem, but now readers have tested and both have the same problem. Oddly enough if the disc seems to be ok/normal when I transfer on my Vista laptop, which is usually always slower when trasnfering over the laptop Windows 7, Vista typically files transfers to nearly 20 MB/s while Windows 7 to about 30 MB/s. But now the two Toshiba drives during the transfer on the Windows 7 laptop, slower starts (compared to the Dec2011 lot), and then descends slot 5 Mbps, then stops / pauses, then starts the process repeated several times, and then finally completed the transfer.

Also 'time remaining' bit in "file transfer popup", told me how much minutes & seconds to transfer, almost immediately (usually less than 5 seconds) when I start the transfer, but now if I transfer a big'ish of the file for example 2 GB + 'time remaining' says 'Calculation' for a while (10to20 seconds or more), then finally tells me the time remaining. So everything is just much slower compared to before.

Anyone know what is the cause of problems in promoting news readers? necessary updates?
Thank you

Not sure if I can help, but have you tried to format the external DRIVE to NTFS drive?
Try to do this.

But generally the start & stop/pause should not appear when transferring large files so possibly it could be a HARD drive problem. Its odd that this happens with both hard drives, but a HARD disk problem could also be possible.

  • Stor.E Basics 2 to USB 3.0 HARD drive

    Hello

    I am trying to use this external HARD drive to backup my Synology DS212J (about 900 GB) data
    Failed to backup NAS holds the ejected disc.
    Check the Syno forums, it seems that the Syno has some compatibility issues with ext HDD using Jmicron Chipsets.

    Anyone here know what kind of chipset is used in the basics of Stor.E 2 TB HDD USB3.0?

    Thank you

    Hello

    To be honest, I don't know what type of regulator is used in this external HARD disk.
    I guess that it s a common SATA controller and HARD drive also supports the SATA properties.

    But in my opinion, even if you want to know the name of the controller, it would be very useful.
    Either the HARD disk is compatible and the NAS can manage this type of HARD drive or not fully compatible sound and in this case, you will need to use another.

    I don t think you have other options.

  • External USB HARD drive Stor.E basics Sleep Mode

    Hi all
    Recently, I bought Stor.E Basics 500 GB USB 3.0 external hard drive to store my archives of work (mainly the .docx and .xls formats).
    During my work after maybe 5 or 10 minutes, my drive HARD past in mode "sleep" and it takes time to wake up my drive and resave the file. Is there a solution to my problem? I need to disable the Sleep Mode.

    A few things I've tried:
    (1) I tried to use 'Always On' profile in the control panel power option
    (2) off "Allow the computer to turn off this device to save power" devices-online all storage devices Usb root Manager.
    (3) and also disk management-properties-hardware-online HARD drive-online policies online online => optimize for performance.

    OS - Windows XP SP3.
    PS Sorry for my English.

    Do you have the same HDD like this one?
    http://www.Toshiba-multimedia.com/EU/store-external-hard-drives/basics/

    This HARD drive has need of 900mA power supply.
    This means that you need a USB 3.0 standard or 2 x USB 2.0 ports

    I think that if your computer supports support only USB 2.0, you must use the USB cable to Y which allows you to connect 2 USB ports HARD drive.

  • Toshiba Stor.E Basics 2.5 ": how to get rid of the folder lang

    Hey there.

    So I have this external hard drive 500 GB Toshiba Stor.E Basics 2.5 " , bought a year in Italy.
    I use it on a MacBook with a few apps, so it works perfectly well.

    But the thing is there is this "lang" folderwith a subfolder of separate for each language (more a subfolder "resources"), which takes almost 28 GB of storage capacity, although it is completely empty. When I try to delete it, it doesn't let me, I get a message "file X is used" (where 'X' represents the subfolders).

    So I would like to know if there is a way to get rid of this file, as 28 GB are not exactly redundant.

    Thanks in advance! =)

    According to the disc specification page HARD (basic Stor.E); the quick start guide, as well as operating manuals was preinstalled.
    But I doubt that these documents should 28 GB of storage. So I think that some of your applications created the mentioned language folder, including subfolders.

    Usually, you must close the application that uses the files so you can easily remove the single folder. But in some cases, it may not be clear which program or a background process has locked a file or a folder.
    In this case, you can use a software free ware / tools to unlock the stubborn folder to change or remove.

    The software (for windows) called Unlocker is able to unlock the file, and then you could remove it properly.

  • Partner Toshiba Stor.e 2.5 "power USB3 problems

    I had the partner Toshiba Stor.e 2.5 "external hard drive USB3 for about 5 months and couldn't be happier... until tonight.

    I have it plugged into my laptop Satellite Pro and nothing happened. It seems that the fault is where the cable connects to the device. If I pull the cable up the light blue lights and voltage of my hard drive, when I let go the power ceases.

    It seems that the connection of the device is quite fragile and I can move it up and down easily.
    I took care of the product and have not been subjected to undue constraints so I'm not very happy.

    Has anyone else had this kind of problem?
    Is this a design flaw or a single random problem?

    Can it be fixed?

    Thank you very much

    Hello

    You you connected this external USB HDD two USB ports on your laptop?
    I think that you must use a USB cable to Y that allows to connect the HARD drive to two USB ports, because this HARD drive needs 900mA.

    The common standard USB 2.0 port (I guess that your laptop supports only USB 2.0) provides 500mA and usually is not enough for the USB 3.0 HARD drive.

    Another solution could be the use of the USB hub using an external power supply.

    Thank you.

    Hello

    Unfortunately, the Toshiba STOR. E BASICS - BLACK 2.5 specifications page "-1.5 to provides no details on the controller, but in my view the inside of the box, you will find a common SATA 2.5 which is connected to a controller HDD USB SATA."

    You can also try some freeware like HDDscan for example tools to scan the HARD drive and get more details.

  • Stor.E Basics 500 GB HARD drive corrupt

    This disc has been used twice, once to make a complete up to the computer, and then a second time to add two files. Yesterday, I logged in to download a number of files and got the message that it has been tampered... How the hell is this happened when it has been sitting on a shelf?

    I didn't for a long time. As it was a gift I don't know when it was purchased and if he's still in the warranty period.

    I need to know if there is any chance of fixing it, or if it is now beyond repair?
    In any case Inwould never trust one of these things once, mother are supposed to be ultra reliable.

    He very shame to s that the HARD drive can no longer be used, but in my view, it was simply bad luck.
    Unit malfunction happens it could be a manufacturing defect or maybe the HARD drive fell into the past, who knows.

    Each product is covered by warranty, and in case of hardware problems, the system could be fixed or replaced free of charge.

    In most cases the HARD drive malfunction cannot be repaired and in such cases, the dealer has to replace the device.

  • Problem with Stor.E Canvio - TB 3 drive HARD USB 3.0 external

    I bought a 3 TB Canvio HDWC130EW3J1 and used to save a load of files on the partition, with it came.
    Everything is OK. Unplugged the HDD than Win 7 and plugged into another Win 7 and - no partition.

    Win 7 identified as brute of 3 TB.
    I've messed up with her for a bit, abandoned and finally it was exchanged for a new, I assumed it was a defective controller or something.

    The replacement is exactly the same. As soon as the reader is disconnected and reconnected, everything disappeared. I tried this partitioning with a 3 TB GPT partition and a 2 TB MBR, it contains the same.

    I bought a £ 75 door stop. I dare not put anything on the drive, it is useless.
    Behaves the same USB2 and USB3.
    I had a quick glance at various forums and see people complaining about similar problems, but no resolution.

    Anyone have any idea?

    It is a HARD USB 3.0 drive that is also compatible with the USB 2.0 standard.
    I m wondering if the HARD drive could be recognized properly using a Y USB 3.0 cable that allows to connect the HARD drive to two USB ports.

    In addition HARD drive supports the format NTFS file standard and in my opinion it of not necessary to change the format of files.

    Moreover HARD drive supports password encryption and helps secure the data from unauthorized access.
    In case you use this HDD in relation to other laptops, respect this password encryption.

  • Windows 7 64 bit does not recognize the USB external drive HARD Stor E art 3.5 "

    I buy the art external disk HARD Stor E 3.5 "and spend a few days in windows does not recognize the HARD drive. Try to connect the drive to other USB 2 ports and nothing happens. Use a USB to see if has been a problem with the USB ports, but all 3 are OK. Try it on the laptop Asus and windows 7 recognizes the HARD disk. I formatted the drive in NTFS FS. In managing records do not show the external HARD disk. What can I do to fix this?

    My laptop is a Qosmio F60

    This is a really silly situation. It can be recognized by other laptops but not your Qosmio.
    According to the description of your HARD drive when connected simply doesn t exist for your Qosmio laptop.

    Some other HDD is recognized correctly?
    What you can try is to reinstall the chipset driver, restart the laptop and test it again.

    Since when you have this problem? Some installed updates of the last days?

    The USB connector is damaged, one of the bent pins.
    It does not seem to have the expected SATA interface where I could use a different case.

    It seems the only way to power and the HARD drive inside the interface, with a Toshiba pcb which includes USB 3.

    Can someone tell where I can get one I have many ion of the data on the drive that I can't access?

    If I understand you right all what you need is new USB cable, no?

    Googling around, I found many online shops, including offers on eBay where you can simply order cable USB 3.0 portable hard drives from Toshiba.

    You will find the order in your country too?

  • How to store games so that they do not take too much space on the hard drive (XP Prof). And how do I know what files are 'useless' before I remove them?

    In very simple terms please

    Some games offer the opportunity to install some files only when you are setting them up, others not.  There is nothing you can do to force a game to use more or less hard disk space it wants to use.

    Clean 'files' is a losing proposition.  Unless you're the type who has dozens of movie files to several gigabytes of each hard drive there is no way to clean up "the files" in quantities reasonable for free hard drive space.

    It seems that if your hard disk becomes full or is full and should be replaced by a larger.  It is the only real solution to the problem, if so.  Get a bigger hard drive, transfer your current installation of Windows itself and be happy.
