• The server 2008R2 very slow file transfer speed

  I have a server 2008R2 with 32Gigs of Ram and core 2 Quad processors.  When I copy a large file (200gigs) of a directory and paste to another local on the machine, transfer speed is about 6-10 Mbps.  Anyone know why this would happen?  It also happens on my virtual machine running the same operating system to 2008R2, but with the 2008R2, it is limited to 4 logical processors.

  Thanks for your time,

• very slow file read/copy of WinXP to Win7

  I have two PCs, it is WInXP, one is Win7.  On Win7, I produce read/copy of WinXP to Win7, it is very slow, about 10% of the 100 Mbps network (as indicated by the Task Manager and the status of file copy).  However, if I do the copy of file for WinXP to Win7, it is very fast, about 90% of the 100 Mbps.

  It is using windows file sharing.

  Why is this?

  Please note that all operations are done on the Win7 PC, I have not tried to do it on PC WinXP again.  There are a few problems with Windows XP, access to the share on the Win7 PC (which can access any other PC Win7).  But it is not so important.

  I do regular files between WinXP PC at work, they are typically 50% of 100 Mbps.

  Thank you.

• Slow file copy

  When I used Windows 7 then copying on USB speed is about 25-30 MB/s. Now, I've upgraded to Windows 8 (new installation). Copying speed is 3-4 MB/s. Also, when I press Ctrl + SHIFT + ESC and then after the UAC warning almost 10 seconds and when I press 'Yes' Manager stains openly quickly. Everything else is fine, apparently. Tried the clean boot, without success. Run 'Automatic Maintenance' on a regular basis. Do not use the type of maintenance software. Don't want to refresh or reset. Another option?

  Hi Prashant,

  Have you updated the firmware/drivers for the USB key?  It would be the first thing to try.

  Although different OS (and slightly different suggestions - such as using USB 3 vs USB 2 ports if you have any vs vs USB 2 USB 1.1 - Although this would be equally true but less likely the case), the rest of what follows can be useful if the installation uses default values that maybe are not what you want.

  Another possibility, I saw concerned affecting the performance of USB drives in Device Manager properties - told to change for optimized performance political (or whatever option might be for yours - if there is an option) did the trick and another said he did nothing.  Familiar to the things we see in V & M?  Laughing out loud!

  I hope this helps!  Sorry, no idea about the task Mgr delay.

  Good luck!

• Satellite A60 - very slow USB transfer speed

  Hello

  I have a Satellite A60 with XP Home and the USB transfer speed is very very low. Is 2.0, but it is not working properly, because it takes about 30 minutes to copy the data from 1 GB on a USB 2.0 drive externally.

  I tried my USB drives on another computer and work quickly and well, so it is probably just a problem of drivers, but can't find them on the web from Toshiba to reinstall them. I heard that it is a common problem after installation of XP Service Pack 2, but I didn't do anything, I use the operating system as it came when I bought the laptop (with XP Home SP2 preinstalled original), I do not change any configuration or install drivers that can affect to the USB controllers and it has always been so slow.

  Could someone help? I tried to reinstall the drivers from Toshiba, but I think that there are not more special just for the USB, what should I update then? I need to improve the transfer speed of USB data for professional purposes, because I can't lose so given at the time of the transfer, please please please help!

  PS: Sorry for my terrible English, but it is there no Toshiba forums on my tongue: P

  Hello

  USB drivers are part of the operating system and you are unable to download the USB drivers separately.
  In my view, it is really not necessary to reinstall the USB drivers because the USB HDD is recognized correctly and it works.

  USB 2.0 transfer speed 480 Mbps supports and if any didn't error message then the USB ports running at full speed.

  For more details, please see this page of Microsoft;
  http://www.Microsoft.com/windowsxp/using/networking/learnmore/jones_02august05.mspx

  Last but not least I would recommend to update the XP to the last State. I mean that you need to install all of the available patches and fixes.

  Good bye

• Windows 8.1 ReadyNas with sync - when online very slow file access

  Hello

  I use the latest firmware 6.4.2 and network of NAS drives, I use with the Windows synchronizes 'offline' feature to make them. Operating system is Windows 8.1. I'm the only user with the 8.1 and only synchronize the network of NAS drives. Access the NAS online with the NAS is terribly slow, that sometimes it takes 2 minutes just to access a folder that is not on the first level of training, but at a lower level. I have no idea what kind of question it is. It occurs in two cases during the active sync, and also when I'm 'just' online in the network that is a gigabit ethernet.

  Best regards, Jens

  You have disabled NAS Antivirus service?

• Very slow download E1200 speed

  I chatted four times with technical support on the issue of load speed down without resolution.  The router and modem are new.  Connect directly to the modem I get Mbps, but the router speed is Kbps.  I updated the firmware and made various changes by searches on Google.  I would like suggestions of others could have on this issue.  Thank you

  Hi ScarletJamie,

  I determined the cause.  I found and disabled WMM switch which fixed (I think) the problem.  I saw the repeated references to this switch.  It took a while to find the access.  Thank you for you time bcil

• manipulation of file/folder Win 8.1Thunderbird very slow

  Long story short: Win 7 has been corrupted, so I installed Win 8.1. All programs work well, with the exception of Thunderbird. Any action of Thunderbird is extremely slow, up to a few minutes to perform any action. The program is unusable in normal windows mode. However,.

  Thunderbird works fine in safe mode, even with the antivirus software (Iolo / System Mechanic) currently running.

  A cause may be that any action I take with files bigger than a few bytes of Thunderbird is very slow. Copy, move, delete all the files of Thunderbird is extremely slow. I tried to copy other big files and folders in the T-bird folders and delete them, and they work fine. It's just the Thunderbird files that seem to be stuck in the glue.

  I added Thunderbird to my allowed firewall programs, so this is not it.

  I uninstalled and reinstalled Thunderbird, nothing helps.

  There may be other things that you must disable in System Mechanic, such as analysis of messages incoming and outgoing and scanning of attachments.
  Alternatively, you can ask in a forum for System Mechanic.

• Network file transfer speed in windows 7

  I have a working network.

  Files shared in a warehouse are used by other customers. (file size is 1 GB and more)

  Some customers use windows XP and some customers use windows XP.

  My operating system file server is windows server 2008 and I use file sharing.

  The use of files shared in windows XP (software import and editting) has no problem, but in the same use in windows 7, it is very slow.

  File transfer speed is slow and the access to the files in the software takes a long time.

  Example: In windows XP, a 12 GB file is imported into edius pro in a second, but same file in windows 7 takes 65 seconds to import

  What security options are why, or how I can solve it?

  Hello

  Which version of Win 7, you use in client side, he logged in as a domain for win 2008 Server.
  I hope that the system win 7 is not a task force. Home network with one or more computers running Windows 7 can experience slow file transfer speeds, specifically during the transfer of files with other computers running different operating systems,

  Turn off and disable the Compression feature differential to remove Windows 7 can be a solution to slow copying files, file move or delete the file bug.

  • Click the Windows 7 start button, then go to control panel.
  • Click on the link programs.
  • In programs & features section, select features Windows activate or disable the link.
  • Uncheck the remote differential Compression checkbox.
  • Click OK.
  • Wait for the feature to be disabled.
  • Once completed, restart the computer.

• For many small files extremely slow copying speed

  Hello

  I am running Windows 7 64 bit on my i5 750 pc which, so far, has worked perfectly. However, I suddenly noticed this morning when I need to copy a folder that contains many small files (about 5,000) for a total of 115 MB on a USB it was copying EXTREMELY slowly. I'm talking only about 300 KB/s. The building is only a few months and I don't think I need to do a similar task before.

  Now before you think of questions arise on the USB, this has happened on two separate sticks either in ports at the front of my case or on the back of the motherboard (MSI P55 G65). This same USB that I copied eventually was able to copy to and from another computer around 20 MB per second.

  This anomaly has been forgotten until I tried to save a similar folder on my hard drive to another location on the same drive free. Void ~ 300KB / s. I've tested the copy of a series of large video files which are completed in a fraction of a second.

  The hard drive is a Western Digital Caviar Black 1 TB. The drive has about 800 GB of free and I ran the Windows Defragmenter but it had no effect on the copy speed. I tried searching on the net for an answer and found a person in the United Kingdom which had a similar problem copy to USB specifically and seemed to blame on the way its Windows Vista from copying small files and agreed to this. I don't think it's true but because my friend running Windows 7 64 was able to copy the exact same folder around its SATA hard drive and from my USB drive almost instantly.

  Windows 7 is fully updated and some drivers report that they don't work and there seems to be no conflict or anything of this nature, although I wouldn't say I've watched carefully, in part because I don't know what I would find. I run Kaspersky Internet Security 2010. Don't know if this is relevant, but when I built it first of all, my USB keyboard was not recognized (ultimate keyboard Das) in windows 7 (although work properly when installing curiously). This has been fixed by the update the motherboard BIOS. This is all information that comes to mind that I think may be relevant.

  Can anyone help please, it drives me crazy.

  Thanks - Tim.

  Thanks for the reply,

  I did as you said, and there is definitely an increase. I tried to disable it first, what things accelerated up to about 3 MB/s and when I left the program altogether, he jumped at about 20 MB/s, making it more than a second 5 copy for a little more than 100 MB. My friend computer above (of which mine is more powerful and better-specd) could do exactly the same operation in the same operating system in just a few seconds.

  I'll wait for Kaspersky to rectify the problem, but I still think 20 MB/s is terribly slow... In fact, slower than most USB flash drives and even less on the same hard disk. Anyone else has any advice / suggestions?

  Thanks again,

  -Tim.

  Have you already found a solution to this?  I see a very similar phenomenon when you copy a folder with more than 100 k small files into it (total data about 1 GB).  I can copy a 10 GB single file of SATA to SATA in less time than it takes to file copy of the 1 GB with 100 k files.  I have a box to open with the support of Microsoft, but they don't have anything for me yet.

  Thank you

  My mac mini (mid-2010) speed/performance is very slow - think of it as a result of letting my kids do "whatever" about it in recent years.  Need help, consolidate the files, software updates, etc. in order to improve the speed and performance.  You will also need to get data out of old PowerBook G4.

• When I transfer files from my hard drive on a USB flash drive, the transfer rate is very slow, about 250 KB / second. Is it possible to increase the speed of transfer rate

  When I transfer files from my hard drive on a USB flash drive, the transfer rate is very slow, about 250 KB / second. Is it possible to increase the speed of transfer rate

  depends on the speed, support USB 2.0, USB 2.0 ports, and with active BIOS settings

  (2) you can increase the speed, if your motherbaord has a USB 3.0 port and must be enabled in the BIOS

• Slow NAS using Explorer file copy

  I have a network home gigabit. Based on a linux NAS (qnap), 3 win xp & 2 win 7 ultimate.

  NAS is the centralized storage for all media/files of all these computers.

  Copy/access to the file of XP machines is perfect. But Win 7 is dead slow. Connected to the switch with Cat 5e cable, I get 100 Kbps (not firewall & no other activity on the network). Overall, when I get desperate and let him finish at the speed of the miser, it ends at all.

  All the drivers are up to date.

  A couple of PC are old, but the two that I bought in the hope of getting rid of this slow access are all new i5/i7.

  I read a lot of posts on the net on various fixes. I also tried a few, but no result.

  Please don't not/response theory on storage cards post / / speed/network access hard disk etc.

  I read everything and I'm tired.

  Yet once, in my setup NAS box isn't a problem. Works perfectly fine with XP.

  Network card is not a problem. It's because using an ftp client to copy files from the NAS, I get a good 50-60MBPS (YES on the same PC WIN7, for the same files. It is not for a single file. I have FTP'd about 1000 100 GB in size (big and tiny files included)). But this speed only lasts until I open Windows Explorer. As soon as I did this, the speed drops to a crawl. So if I want to get all files in the NAS, I have to restart Win7 and ftp before you open the Solution Explorer.

  Read all the messages on this SAME forum, there are hundreds of cases where this has been reported. And I haven't read a SINGLE instance where Microsoft agreed, that's a problem with Win 7.

  Personally, I keep not if Microsoft accepts or not, BUT after making a lot of money off the coast of their customers, I would expect Microsoft to CHALLENGE this as soon as POSSIBLE an automatic update.

  After writing this monologue, I'd wait for the moderator/decision-making people in charge to answer WHEN WILL THIS GET FIXED.

  After spending $ 2000 on the hardware to find out that there is a problem with WIN7, I was more sober and more civilized write this upward.

  For the rest of the team, I hope that my FTP autour work is useful to someone in desperation (like me).

  Hello

  I also have a NAS.

  Only that my SIN is Windows Home server, and it works very quickly.

  Speed (see here), http://www.ezlan.net/vista/Giga-Optimized.jpg

  It is 70 MB/sec (B = bytes).

  You call that a problem with Windows, I call it a problem with Linux (the old story of chickens and eggs).
