[solved] Can W7 handle large #s of files?
I did some data recovery and pulled over 8 million "files" from an external HD.
Searching 'mp3' and 'doc' I verified there are many valid files on my internal drive.
However, when I try to copy them back the window disappears after about 5 minutes of "preparing to copy" and there is nothing on the drive when I look.
It feels like my system is getting bogged down because of the absurd # of files! I can't even right click -> properties to see exactly how many are on there. It starts going really slow and I get impatient after about 8 million.
