HI Jarry,
Thanks for the advice.
The only VM that is running has two virtual hard drives.
* Drive C is NTFS100Gb, contains the Win2k8SP2. It's in DataStore01 on the original first Hard Dirve.
* Drive D is an NTFS 250Gb, contains lots of data folders. It's in DataStore02, on the new second Hard drive.
* Memory: using 737Mb of 2Gb limit (of 8Gb real).
* Limits: Unlimited
* Shares: High (4000)
* Reservations: 0
The copying being done is all from virtual Drive D, to Drive D -- not between C and D.
I'm copying folders of 1Gb of small files from the same drive to another location on the same drive.
