There are various GUI apps like Teracopy that do much the same thing. Windows Explorer is not the right tool for the job.

The issue isn't Explorer (as evidenced by laptop being banging), it's that this PC isn't talking to the drive correctly. Here's USBTreeView output for the drive:

hippy
That's nice but I ain't got time for command line bullshit.
I'm going to test this on my laptop to see if it's the drive or the PC and then I'll just send it back and get an internal SATA instead. Fucking knew I shouldn't be clever with external drives.
