Good morning, so i took out an hdd from an old computer and try to copy its files, mainly old photo and some videos. The total files are less than 15gb.

If i copy more than may be 5 or 6 folders, it will start and then suddenly the copying dialog box just poof and nothing is copied.

No warning and error displayed, if copy individually then it can be copied successfully.

If a folder contains too much many files inside it sometimes auto stop as well.

Is there some kind or copy limit or something like that? Or the older hdd just can't support too much reading or reading for a long time?

Unfortunately the drive is no longer accessible, manage to copy most of the files, and now it just spin and can't be detected, making the explorer so slow that it hangs.

When it still can be accessed, it makes cmd hang, disk management also hang.

There is no ticking sound or scratch sound, the small control board just get very hot and do nothing. Maybe the board is damaged instead of the disk?
