Hello
I'm running Vista 64 with 8 G Ram, 2 Tb sata hard drives. Using Windows complete backup, I am backing up to an external drive with options for either E-sata or usb connections . The external drive is connected as an "E-sata" drive when the backup freezes on disk one 3rd partition which happens to be an sql database (not running). If I turn off the external drive, the system recovers and of course the backup fails. The backup completes if I run the external drive on the USB interface. Ok so my thinking is there is something wrong with the external drive using the E-sata connection. I have the latest bios updates. I downloaded Acronis 11 and repeated the same backup configuration as above and the backup completes successfully on the external drive interfaced as E-sata. Anyone, any ideas if the drive is faulty or its a bug in Vista? |
