The PowerBook I used to copy the files is a G4 1.25GHZ. All of the machines are plugged into the same 10/100 router. This is why I think the MDD is at fault. I was going to look at the logs on the Hack, but I upgraded the HD and therefor reformatted, thats why I needed to move those files. As I said before, I have copied over 100GB from the Hack to the MDD without a problem before this. I am going to try copying something big from the PowerBook to the MDD and see if the PowerBook screws up. I will report back shortly.
