Request could not performed because of an I/O device error


Recommended Posts

I might know what the cause of the not cloning is...

After the clean install, I try/tried to use this Samsung NVMe in my other computer.

The device manager gives this issue.

I have renamed the drivers, and deleted them. But for some reason it's not fully healthy I think.
It's completely wiped and empty, and a new partition has been created [and wiped again].

I have connected the SSK external NVMe to my other computer via USB-C and then this error appeared.
With a standard USB-USB/C it looks like it's running.

Might this "simply" be a USB-C cable issue? [although on my ROG STRIX I also tried the other USB to USB-C cable and there it didn't work.
Or is something else the case here?

Is the drive faulty? It's still under the 5-years warranty?

 

EDIT:

The cloning went successful!

Nice! How did it fix?

I managed via Device Manager to delete the partitions.

Where this was not possible, I renamed the drive letter and then deleted the partition [luckily].

All 'unallocated disk space' was formated, and a drive was created (this has been done via EASEUS Partition Manager, so not Windows Device Management].

After that I deleted this partition via EASEUS to unallocated again.

Finally I cloned the drive via Partition Manager.

[and put it in other machine]

 

On the new machine I downloaded Samsung Magician, and no errors are reported and the drive condition is good.

 

PS I guess some hickup had been the case on the "old" disk layout or something. Possibly with future errors-to-be, and I might got lucky by replacing this drive instead of losing all my data.

Interesting! Glad it worked out.

Update: Unfortunately it didn't :o

Just 1/2 weeks after the reinstall on another machine, after a reboot a blue screen emerges with BitLocker. And if I could enter the key. The what?!?

Also, on another drive (my extra/documents [luckily cloud-docs] which was never BitLocker'ed was also encrypted. Like... how?!?

It kinda looks to to me the older drive was "recovering" or 'remembering' or something else that it used to have BitLocker encryption - a very, very long wayy back - on these drive letters.

Lucky for me it was under warranty, and the retailer decided to refund the initial purchase.

I now have a brand new Samsung 980 PRO with hopefully not the 'remember you had BitLocker my friend' setting/memory.

    • Well, the interface is horrible. PST isn't fully functional. Can't properly import Thunderbird contacts into it. All that showed up are names.
    • "all the way down" by 33 whole dollars. Amazing. You shouldn't have.
    • If they make a portable version, I might give it a try, but I will always prefer hotkeys to that approach
    • The Synology DS923+ is down to $610 just for today on Newegg by Steven Parker Right now on Newegg, and only for today (June 26) you can find the Synology DS923+ discounted all the way down to $609.99 when using a coupon during checkout, down from it's normal $642.99 price. Although we haven't reviewed the DS923+ on Neowin, we have seen Synology before and rated it quite highly. Besides, the DS1522 even has the same AMD R1600 CPU. Some people would consider Synology homelab NAS equipment the "gold standard", and as such, competitors strive to do as good, at least in regard to the Operating System, DSM, which ticks all the boxes for amateurs, professionals and small business users for its inclusion of mobile apps for core app services such as Surveillance Station, and more. Here are the most important specifications: Synology DS923+ CPU AMD Ryzen R1600 2-core 2.6 (base) / 3.1 (turbo) GHz Graphics No Memory 4 GB DDR4 SODIMM, maximum 32 GB (16 GB x 2) Disk Capacity 72 TB (18TB x 4) RAID Level RAID 0, 1, 5, 6, 10, and JBOD + SHR (Synology Hybrid RAID) Network 2 x RJ-45 1 GbE Internal storage 2 x M.2 2280 NVMe Slot USB Ports 1 x USB 3.2 (5 Gbps) HDMI 1 x Expansion 1 x eSATA 1 x Gen3 x2 network upgrade slot Size (H/W/D) 166 mm x 199 mm x 223 mm Weight 2.24 kg Power 35.51 W (Access) 11.52 W (HDD Hibernation) What's in the box? Main Unit X 1 Accessory Pack X 1 AC Power Adapter X 1 AC Power Cord X 1 RJ-45 LAN Cable X 2 Quick Installation Guide X 1 You may notice that the DS923+ does not have integrated graphics, which is a step down from earlier Intel-based models that did include an iGPU. However, even this year's model (the DS925+) does not include an iGPU with its slightly newer AMD Ryzen Embedded V1500B CPU, but also unhelpfully locks down what you can use in it. All 2025 models require hardware from Synology's own compatibility list, this currently does not affect the DS923+. In addition you are only getting dual 1 GB Ethernet with the DS923+, so you may need to factor in the cost of adding the 10 GbE PCIe network card, which sells for $110.99 on Newegg. Ultimately, deciding on a NAS device comes to down to your individual requirements. For example, more bays is not always better, especially once you factor in the price of hard drives. Those with more modest storage requirements may be better off with a 2-bay device. From my personal experience, DSM 7.2 is great, it's so great that I have installed it on my TerraMaster F4-424 Max. Finally, and perhaps more importantly many tinkerers would prefer building their own server which is definitely a cheaper option, but without the polish of a dedicated NAS. If you have no need to transcode video on the fly and want a four bay NAS device, then the DS923+ is a great solution for every other use case and I can highly recommend it.
