"Disk Full" error ...Disk is not 1/10 full
I am attempting a file backup from a Win7 Pro machine. I want to copy the 4 top folders of a NTFS formatted data disk. The total size of the folders is 624GBs on a 2TB dive.
I want to back up the folders separately each as a new full backup. The receiving drive is on my FreeBSD Samba server. The 2TB drive is newly formatted. I have fscked the drive; it is clean. The drive has one 1.8TB partition. "True Image” keeps stopping at 50GBs telling me the disk is full.
What can I do with this $%^&* software? It does have pretty colors though.

Steve Smith, thank you for looking in. You offer a good deal of help on these forums.
The fault proved to be a drive that was one year past its 5-year warranty. I had smart tools monitoring the drives -- but received no warning from that source. I ran a manual test and discovered the problem. (I had no idea that there was a drive that old in that stack. I ran tests on all the drives – the others are less than half that age) I popped in a new drive and the backup is proceeding.

Glad that you have found and resolved the fault with the drive, those problems are not the easiest to find so well done! Thanks for the feedback.
