Folder tree opening slow on new copied drive

[Mr Ranger]

HI,
Copied contents of old drive to new 250G drive. Both drives have two
partitions. Old drive is fat32. New drive NTFS.

Problem: New drive is very slow opening a folder tree. When selecting the
move or copy functions and trying to select a folder with large contents, I
have to wait 30secs to a minute. The old drive does so instantly. The new
drive is a mirror of old, why is the new and I might add better drive
having this problem?

Thanks,
Mr Ranger

how big did you make on the new 250 hdd partiton on NTFS.
i suggest that you have to make 2 or more partition on it. since NTFS support 137 gb ( microsoft said )
or the motherboard that you have needs a bios update!!

C: is 20G & D: 220G. The files that are responding slowly are of course on
the D: drive. I will try partition magic and make another partition or
two. Although maybe a bios update.
