  1. Copying files freezes and picks up after a few seconds


    So I have been facing this issue for a while now, whenever I try to copy large files (about 50GBs) on my mechanical hdd from the ssd or from an hdd to hdd, I find that it works good for some time, I get around 180 - 200MBps (am using 3.5 inch HDDs) but then the transfer speed drops to like 15 MBps and freezes for a few seconds only for it to resume to its normal speed, this happens every few minutes when am copying the files which makes copying large files slower since it happens like 10 times when I copy a 50GB folder. What do I do?

    :)

    Java.nio.file - Copying files

    You can't copy a folder, thats why it generates an exception (you are trying to copy a folder using a copy file function).
    You probably need to list all the files inside that folder and copy one by one
