I have Windows 7 Professional and am trying to backup 400GB of data from my laptop C drive to an NTFS formatted RAID configured network drive with plenty of capacity (almost 1TB free space). The backup stalls at about 20% each time. I tried switching off my antivirus program but it made no difference. Any ideas or alternative solutions?
