Moving DCS to a new drive

[taffy001]

Solved this problem.  The NEW SSD was just too slow and had trouble  swapping data at required speed.

Bought a better unit and re-installed and all working good now

Hi jackd

The dodgy unit was a Seagate Expansion 2TB SSD Portable Hard Drive - Black ($128.00AUD from Harvey Norman).  I had 2 of them, both brand new and both scored around 75 on the Crystal Mark testing.

I replaced it with a new ADATA Elite SE880 USB-C Portable SSD 2TB Drive ($250.00AUD) and had approx 500 score with Crystal Mark ( - 1000 score if installed via USB - C).  So much better and worked like  a dream

The 2TB SSD in my PC was getting a bit crowded with Win11, DCS, lots of apps ect. I added another M2 SSD (WD_BLACK SN850X 8TB with heat sink) and migrated DCS world (approx. 1,2TB in my installation). Saved Games (approx. 166GB) is left untouched on the 2TB SSD. That migration was nothing more than just a simple copy plus renaming some shortcuts and works fine since 3 weeks.
