Disk Not Eject Properly Error and Mac Error Code - 36 When Transferring Files

WD External and Portable SSD My Passport Wireless SSD
1

I bought a new My Passport for Mac WD External 2TB Hard Drive. I have connected it to my laptop through a USB device called Charjen Pro.

I am trying to transfer from my OLD 500 GB WD Hard drive to my new 2TB Hard drive but it keeps disconnecting.

I have two errors that show up:

  1. Disk Not Ejected Properly
    (But I don’t want to disconnect so why does it keep disconnecting?)

  2. The Finder can’t complete the operation because some data can’t be read or written. Error Code 36.
    (How do I find what file it is talking about in order to change the file name or format in order to get copied?)

Any help is much appreciated.

Also, it could be that the Chargen Pro might not have enough memory space to hold a 2TB USB Key? (Could it be that?)

Thanks

Hi atjgraphincs,

Have to tried to change the USB cable? Have to tried to connect the drive with any other computer and check if it do the same thing?
