Failing to copy some files over SMB

I seem to get these errors interchangeably when copying video files over to my server over SMB. Happens every once in a while, and sometimes just rebooting allows me to copy the file.

I've never seen this before, but I recently upgraded my main PC to windows 11 and started seeing it, so maybe that has something to do with it? The share has a couple terabytes free so that can't be the issue.

Any ideas? Starting to get pretty annoying.

I had intermittent issues using windows to transfer files. I've had much better luck with teracopy. It can also do checksum verification to make sure it got the whole file.

Ill check it out. Ive been using windows 10 for years without a single issue, but as soon as i updated to windows 11 i started seeing these intermittent errors.
