So I am trying to transfer files to my new external hard drive. I am on a Windows 10 machine and using a cheaper Chinese made HDD. I am getting errors trying to transfer certain files (although some have transferred successfully), and I'm not sure if this is the (potentially poorly made) drive, or there is some extra step I can do have these files successfully loaded.
The files I am trying to download are from torrents. So far, I have successfully loaded two complete tv series, which are mp4. But have also failed to transfer other complete tv series, mp4 but also mkv. I thought maybe I was trying to load too many at a time (although I had no issue doing that on the two successful transfers) and reduced to just transferring a specific season of the show, and then one episode at a time, but to no avail it just doesn't want to successfully transfer these files. For movie (mp4) files, they load on the drive but when I try to open them, I get a '0xc00d3c4' error. If I create a folder within the drive and try to place this mp4 file in there, I get a '0x80070570' error. When it comes to the tv series, which are organized in one folder and then within subfolders per the season, the transfer will load all the folders, but doesn't load all the actual files in the folders. Those that do load get the same '0xc00d3c4' file is not playable error. I cannot even delete the empty folders, getting the '0x80070570' corrupted and unreadable error. Other files I've tried to transfer are cracked web applications, which appear to load on the drive, but again give the '0x80070570' error, which I can only see if I try to move the application file(s) into a folder. When I get one these '0x80070570' errors, I can only delete the files or folders once I have scanned and repaired the drive.
Is this the drive (brand: POENOWNE)? The files themselves are somehow not compatible? If I buy a trustworthy/brand-name drive, like a Seagate, will these transfers then be successful? To that note, if it is the drive and I go with a Seagate product, and based on the files I'm trying to transfer, is there any specific Seagate product you'd recommend?
