  1. Transfering files from Seagate HDD


    Hi!My seagate HDD has been acting strange lately and i know it is a problem with seagate and windows 10/11. I want to transfer all of my files from my seagate hdd to another usb harddrive. I simply just drag and drop the files as i assume is right?I get these error messages and i dont know what is wrong. I also tried a test on the seagate hdd through their scan app but even then i get error messages.Is there any correct way to do this backup? I feel like there is another new problem every time i am trying to move the folders. I really just want to save my files.

    :)

    Need Help Files Transfer

    I have a computer running Windows XP Home Edition. That computer has two internal HDDs:

    The 1st HDD is C:\ that running Windows. And it has 20GB total of capacity.
    The 2nd HDD is D:\ that is empty. And it has 90GB total of capacity.

    The C:\ drive is almost run out of space (full). Is there a way I can transfer everything in the C:\ drive to the D:\ drive and begin to use the D:\ drive from there on as primary drive?
    Can the Windows Files Transfer feature in XP transfer everything I have in C:\ to D:\? If it cannot, then which way can I use to perform the above step?

    Thank you.

    Seagate Freeagent HDD

    I have a Seagate Freeagent Desktop HDD that is not being picked up by Windows 10.

    I have been on to the internet several times looking up options to get over this problem but, as of now, none of these options work.

    I have bee to the Seagate website but again I have not made any progress. One of the options was to uninstall the driver and then reinstall it but this is a problem in itself as my pc isn't even picking up the drive and therefore not only doesn't it work
    but it cannot even be seen and is not listed in the drives.

    Does anyone know if there have been any recent solutions produced for this problem.

    Cable to transfer files

    OMG. I have never met anyone who actually bought one of those file transfer things.



    Firewire will do the same as USB, but faster, so will a cheap crossover cable. I can wlak you through the steps of moving data so you will not miss a beat.




    Anything more than $10 to buy a cable is too much.
