Thank you for the reply. I agree with you. I have never had so much trouble with a portable back up drive.
Some times mine will stop, but not after 4-5 hours of run time. Today the automatic back up began at 6:00am and just now finished at 10:54am. It took 4 hours and 54 minutes to back up only 19.62GB. That is ridiculous. At other times it will not stop at all.
I first installed the drive in January of 2014. At that time I believe it was running version 2.2.0. I am now running 2.3.0. Maybe that is the problem as you suggested. I might try changing it back to 2.2.0 and see what happens.
I’ve been running a different brand of a portable drive for close to 4 years and haven’t had a bit of trouble. I am very disappointed with my WD Passport.
This is very frustrating.
