Re: Help: Just lost 400gb moving torrents onto external H/D

what operating system are you using?

I'm wondering how you got it to format a 750GB in FAT32 format rather than NFTS, I've been looking for an easy way to do that. WINXP will only give the option to format in NFTS if the size of the drive is over about 40GB.

if the checksums are coming back okay then your files are okay ... I'm pretty sure there's no exceptions to that. (edit: using ffp without also running test mode is an exception )

you'll want to run scandisk, maybe defrag as well. it will take forever but you will get to the bottom of it and any errors that exist will get sorted out.

you can also try copying a suspect file back to your computer and try to play it from the internal drive, run the checksums again etc.
