Trouble Manipulation Large files in Win 11
I am having issues moving large files (5.13 Gig) from folder to folder or Drive to Drive. My primary drive is a Samsung SSD 2T, secondary is same but 1T, and two internal 4T WD Hard Drives. The last file in trouble just kind of locked up for about 7 minutes, blacked out the screen then back to where it was. Same issue if I just want to rename or cut/paste. Doesn't matter. The files are movies by the way like MKV and MP4.

Even SSDs can have issues if they’re getting full or fragmented. If your drives are formatted with FAT32, they can’t handle files larger than 4GB. But since your files are bigger, they should be NTFS or exFAT.
