    Assuming you are using Windows Imaging and file/folder backup:
    Both
    1) Volume Shadow Copy
    2) Microsoft Software Shadow Copy Provider
    Should be set to manual as per MS advice.
    and
    a check for drive errors should be carried out
    Disk Check
    Seagate SeaTools will allow you to also run some quick diagnostics on D:. Since it is 1TB a full scan will take some hours.

    Also try just making an image using "Create a System Image" button.
