I have a secondary hard drive (barracuda 1.5tb) that i am tring to copy files to but the problem is that when i try to copy my files from my main hard drive to my secondary hard drive the copying process starts and stops midway and stays there. After awhile i cannot do nothing on my computer as in opening up programs or surfing the web.

I am running windows vista home ppremium service pack 2

Very bizarre...did you run a diagnostic on all drives involved?

This review on Amazon notes a firmware update to the drive solved a similar problem on several Barracuda 1.5Tb drives. It has links.
