Solve : Removable Drive Working but not?

Answer»

I wonder if anyone can shed some light on my subject.

I GOT this Fugitsu 80 GB LAPTOP harddrive that I bought a removable drive casing for. It is USB 2 and I do have USB 2 on my pc but there is SOMETHING not right about the speed. Windows detects the drive 100% and if you copy files on it it WORKS just like any USB 2 (quite FAST) but as soon as I copy from the removable drive to my pc it takes +-5min to copy a Folder of 30Mb. I know something is wrong so I formated, defraged and scanned the disk for errors but none was found. How is this possible? Is the drive broken or what?

Please someone help. :-?How much space was on the internal HDD you were transferring the 30G to ? ?
Ran disk clean and defrag lately on the internal drive ? ?

Also check the internal's transfer mode under Control Panel/System/Hardware/Device Manager...then clik IDE/ATA channels; right click Primary Channel and select Advanced.
In the Advanced section it should say DMA and or Ultra DMA.

If not that internal HDD has issues.
