Default Re: How to lose three hours \'work\'

Loser, you really need to run a scandisk on those drives! Even using 8k or 64k cluster sizes, 375 meg should never take up 12 gig... thats like 36 times bigger... something seems sick.

Secondly, you should run se4 from a local drive - esp if you have auto-hibernate on...
when a network request goes out to a hibernating machine, it could take 10 seconds for the disk to spin up again... which could cause repeated time out errors for many programs, including se4.

Good luck
