Problems copying/cloning

[wsphloyd]

Hello,

I'm trying to clone my internal HD to a new 500 GB internal HD.

I set everything up as detailed in the user guide, etc... and it gets 25 GB's into the cloning and it stopped due to an error. I checked the logs, and this is what I got:

Does this mean that the file DSC03298-HDR.tif is corrupt? If so, do you have any recommendations for software or anything that will find these files before trying to clone? It's a pain waiting all that time for everything to copy and then having it come down to one little file interfering with the whole proccess.

any help would be greatly appreciated!

thank you.

That's what that likely means, Matt. The Troubleshooting section of the User's Guide explains what to do when you find them... but there's no real way to find them "ahead of time" without trying to read every file -- and that's what SD! does.
