  1. Slow data transfer rate


    I don't understand what the issue is. I'm moving 85gigs from one folder to another within the same folder on the same drive which is a hybrid drive and I've seen it go way faster but small or large it never goes over 55mb/s

    :)

    Slow internal hard drive transfer rates

    Hi,

    Please be informed that data transfer rates from hard drive to a computer or to other hard drive depends on several factors like size for data that being transferred; other tasks running in the background; RAM etc. You may install all pending Windows updates.
    Updates are additions to software that can help prevent or fix problems, improve how your computer works, or enhance your computing experience.

    Also follow the steps to run System Maintenance troubleshooter
    on the computer:

    • Type “Control Panel” on the search box.
    • Click on Troubleshooting.
    • Click on View all option on the left side of the Windows.
    • Click on System Maintenance option.
    • Click on Next and follow the onscreen instructions to troubleshoot the issue.
    Do let us know the performance of the computer. Thank you.

    Understanding data transfer rates


    The numbers in Task Manager and Resource Monitor make sense but I don't follow your calculations.

    Task Manager is showing a raw transfer rate of 5.0 Mb/s. That is 5,000,000 bits per second. As there are 8 bits per byte that equates to 5,000,000/8 or 625,000 Bytes per second. That is considerably higher than the 483,000 shown in Resource Monitor but that is easily explained. Task Manager is showing the total data transferred over the network interface while Resource Monitor is showing the actual transfer rate to the file in question. TCP/IP is a complex protocol with multiple levels of overhead. 483,000/625,000=.7728, or about 77.28% transfer efficiency.

  4. Slow data transfer rate

    Data Transfer in Windows 10 is dead slow

    I installed Windows 10 on New Acer Laptop. Initially data transfer on windows 10 between internal hdd and external hdd was above 130MB/sec but now it is rarely touching 25MB/sec.

    I looked on forums but could get any answer. On my home computer which is Windows 7 transfer rate is above 120 . What might be the cause of this slowness
