When using over 3 TB of my 4 TB drive or drives it creates copy errors with Bvckup 2

[pcslookout]

As long as I stay below using 3 TB or more I am fine.

The problem is I can't figure out what drive it is. If any.

I use Bvckup 2 to copy F: Data (WD Black 4 TB) to G: Backup Data (WD My Book 4 TB)

So far after deleting some stuff then redoing the backup on my G: drive and having only 2.37 TB of usage no errors. Though I am worried if I use a little more the errors will come back. How can I determine which drive it is ? Or if it is both drives ?

Thanks!

Isn't this the same issue as the thread you just created here, and I just responded to?

No but it is similar.

Thanks testing now! Do you recommend the quick or full test ?

Full if you think there are drive problems.

Also take a look at the websites of your mobo and your HDD,a lot of hardware have a cut off point at 3Tb and the companies provide tools to utilize the full size of the disk.

For asrock and gigabyte it's called 3TB+ Unlocker utility
