Hi

How big are the files and what file system is used on the external drive?
Are you moving files to or from the drive?

Run Seatools for DOS to check the drive for errors.

What's the brand/model of your computer?

If you're so sure - why don't you ask for a replacement?

You'll have to get the HDD out of the enclosure.
Then mount it in a desktop PC or another enclosure.
