I purchased a brand new 2TB Samsung T7 shield from an expensive and reputable high street retailer chain rather than Amazon to (hopefully) make sure it's legit. I've decided to transfer the main SSD c drive of a laptop onto an external SSD before giving the laptop away.
I'm doing a 680 GB transfer using TeraCopy which was going well with an estimated total ~ 2 hour transfer time. However when it reached around "95% done" with about 30GB left the transfer says it will take 6 days at around 50 kb/s.
Anyone know whats happening or what I can do to get the final 5% of the transfercompleted? I really don't want to stop this transfer and restart it all over again as it's 96% done and worried the issue will happen again the second time
