To me it sounds like you are observing some kind of silent data corruption - perhaps raid controller cache or another component, related to raid controller.
This is why always should be in use consistency check mechanism (e.g. like in ZFS/BTRFS).
I use HP Ultrium 3000 external SAS2 drive. It is LTO-5 and it is first generation which supports LTFS. I use Windows 7 x64 and drive is recognized with normal drive letter. Everything works fine, data copy is done via exporer/copy/paste :) Of course backed up data is not changed often, so you...
I have E8400 with Asus MB from 2008 (G43+ICH10R) and it works without any issues with 10TB Seagate's. Your PC is much newer, it should work without problem.
Hello Ken,
let me try to answer on some of your questions:
Will Windows 7 x64 see this without issue after this? - No, windows 7 needs additional driver in order to support NVMe
It's been a long time since I've cloned an OS but does this process make the new drive active, can boot from? - No...
Hello,
i had similar issue few years ago. My problem was that integrated ICH10R controller was corrupting the data. I've disabled it from BIOS and installed external HBA adapter.
Anyway, what I wanted to share is that in the presence of such large amounts of data it is reasonable to consider using some method for detecting and maybe recovering silent corruptions. because I had exactly this problem and I found it a little bit late, the thing is that I can no longer count...
so guys, do you thing it is good idea to have so much ram (not ECC) and also not reliable hardware (intel ICH) without any kind of checksuming against silent data corruptions?
hello, i have similar problems with my PC.

i haven't resolve my problem, i just use the other SATA controller on my mobo (jmicron 36x).
