17 gigs and your stm should only take about 20 minutes or so. I only use the command line, sorry I should have said that first. xcopy seems to work the best for me. Windows has been known to bugger up a copy. Answering on the fly, sorry. When you create the partition and format make sure that you set it to not be able to compress folders and files. This is bad Juju for exchange. On large files Windows has a bad habit of compressing files weather you want it to or not. You will need to go in to the advanced properties of the file after copy to make sure this hasn't happened, just make sure all boxes are unchecked. Best is to totaly blow the drive away and start from scratch and set up the drive correctly. That may be what's buggering you eseutil. Sorry, answering on the fly. ----- Original Message ----- From: [EMAIL PROTECTED] To: MS-Exchange Admin Issues Sent: Thursday, November 13, 2008 1:53 PM Subject: RE: defrag error

Thanks for everyone's assistance.

I might add to that make sure and reformat the drive with the machine it's plugged into before doing anything. Expect it to be very slow, You may even think it's failed it's so slow, even Esata sucks. I've found it better to just have a big sata drive and controller card for temp space. And backup, backup ,backup!
