Hi all,
Be careful when using usb3 disks for daily tasks and applications.
Story is:
I have
Samsung D3 Station 3TB

Samsung M3 1TB portable
http://www.techradar.com/news/world-of-tech/buy-this-samsung-m3-1tb-portable-hard-drive-for-just-43-99-1261521Host: Win10 x64 with Asus N56V Laptop (which has only usb3 connection
)
Disks: NTFS 4096 bytes
Vmware Workstation 12.5 and cdimage.exe 2.47
fails on
Samsung D3 Station 3TB
(hehe, which is bigger in size with power supply, size does not matter
)
both works fine on
Samsung M3 1TB portable
To fix with Samsung D3 Station 3TB I tired:
- Enabled disk cache (Device Manager ....)
- check disk (Disk - Properties - Tools )
- Samsung Drive Manager -> check disk
did not fix.
I could not find any other thing on internet.
PS: It is very easy and quick to test with cdimage.exe
If any more ideas let me know.
I guess Samsung D3 Station 3TB fails on small file read speed,
and this may fail or result extremely slow some applications.
(Also bad for building projects, so far I build nice but slowly
)
Still Samsung D3 Station 3TB good to me to backup data ...
Something to keep in mind, life goes...
