Works when I only use a 512mb cache.

I had been having a lot of problems with this until I changed the cache size to 512 now it seems to work fine.

    Can you please describe what type of problems you had?

    Oops, sorry, I’ve noticed your “blue screen” report.
    Did you change the size to 512 MB on the same device you were using?

    Yes, the device was the same. My initial tests were all with 1024MB cache sizes

    Can you please check it for errors and bad blocks?
    Please run the command “chkdsk X: /f /r” (replace X with the drive letter.)

    Forgot to tell you that you should remove the cache file from the device before otherwise you will not be able to run the check disk.
