Hi everyone

Perhaps someone can help with this one.....

I have a 7300/180 which has a file copying problem. It is used on a small
network (standard 10-Base-T) and crashes when copying sizeable files to or
from any other machine.

The ruse to date has been never to use the 7300 to initiate the copying but
to go to one of the other machines and use that to copy to or from the 7300.
The 7100 that I am using to write this post will happily send to or receive
from the 7300 a gig of files one way without a hitch. Also I notice that
performing the action on the 7300 always results is a slower data transfer
than doing the same from the 7100.

However, what is more annoying is that sometimes the 7300 crashes when
copying a the contents of a CD to the internal hard drive or from an
external drive to the internal hard drive. Thinking that the internal hard
drive had seen better days I swapped it for a newer larger one (SCSI) - the
problem got worse!

Apps and utilities cannot be to blame as I can reproduce this problem with
only a system (OS9.0.4) installed on a newly low level formatted hard drive.

I have done all the usual tricks (rebuilding desktop, zapping PRAM,
resetting the CUDA, zeroing and initializing hard disk and reinstalling
system, tried OS9.1, tried TechTool Pro, etc.) but to no avail.

I have exhausted all my ideas - anyone out there experienced this type of
behaviour?

Nick
