    recently, windows explorer freezes when i click through the folder structure of external hard drives and ssd. strangely, only with the 4-tb devices, not with those with 2-tb.

    configuration: macos 11.7.1, parallels desktop 18.0.3, Windows 10 Pro 22H2

    who has an idea what this could be and how it can be solved?

    today the problem occurred with a 2 tb hard disk (more precisely: ssd). during backup.

    interestingly, the problem occurred several times when the hard drive was connected to the macbook itself (via usb-c), but NOT when it was connected via usb-a to an usb-hub that is connected to the macbook via a dock.

    does this mean anything to you?
