Slow Reads on HD in Vista
I haven't been able to find a post that describes my problem, and it's
a strange one. I've got a problem with disk READS on one of my hard drives in Vista. It popped up seemingly out of nowhere. My system drive is on a separate hard drive and it seems unaffected. My D: drive (data drive) is where the problem lies. Folder-to-folder copies are taking about 4 minutes for a 700 MB file. On the system drive, they take about 35 seconds. Copying the file from C: to D: also is fast, so it doesn't appear to writing to D:, only reading. My Computer is set to not use icons or thumbnails. I've defragged the drive to no effect. Also did a virus scan with nothing found -- to be expected on a data drive. Any clues?
