On a fresh bootup to Windows, if I transfer several MP3s from my SSD to my 640GB WD, the first ~7 files instantly transfer, while the rest take forever, taking maybe 30 seconds per file. And on future attempts, the first file might instantly transfer, while the rest are slow. It used to run way faster.
I just switched the motherboard SATA port it's plugged into, and that seems to have sped it up quite a bit, but it's still dog slow and <1MB/s.
What the heck could be causing this? It's not the boot drive and there's nothing running in the background; CPU usage sits at 0% if you don't do anything. Recent WinXP install, 3GHz C2D, using 0.2GB/2GB.
