   LM file transfer/copy issues

   I need to transfer/copy a LOT of files of all kinds, eg. video, audio,   
   text, html, etc., from NTFS formatted SATA mechanical drives via a USB   
   case to an internal SATA mechanical drive formatted in Ext4, but using   
   Nemo the file transfer often stops with an error message 'Input/Output   
   error'. According to Mr. Google this is a common Linux problem with   
   transferring/copying files, and due to inadequate buffering. I tried   
   another copy app ( File Manager PCManFM ) that seemed a bit better but   
   still had the problem. The task is unmanageable while this problem   
   exists. What can I do about it? would more RAM help? I have 16 Gb   
   installed. The CPU is AMD Ryzen 5 5500 × 6. and the motherboard is an   
   Asus Prime B550M-K   
      
   Also I notice there have been replies to previous matters I have posted   
   about, but I've been too busy to follow up on them all, but I intend to   
   do so eventually.
