Disk Drive takes 2 minutes to load on pc

[platanaso625]

Does anyone know what might be causing this.

When i set my phone to disk drive and hit done it takes about 2 minutes for the pc to load the drive. This happens on multiple pc's. My friends comes up in just seconds.

Are transfer speeds bad?

Try formatting card?

 

[platanaso625]

Transfer Speeds are fast. Ill try reformatting the card.

Same here. What's weird is it just randomly started happening. It's pretty annoying. Not sure what's causing it. It happens with both my Windows 7 lappy top and my Vista desktop..

Yeah I noticed that as well this afternoon. Kind of annoying. I wonder if its from the most recent update?

Reformatting the card and using a different card did not change the load times. One thing that I did notice is that if I am plugged directly into my laptop with my USB cable, it seems to load faster. If I am plugged in through my USB hub, then it seems a slower.

Once the Disk Drive mode is activated, the transfer speeds are fast regardless of connection method.

I actually just timed it and it took 59 seconds for it to show up on my Mac. I started noticing this once a lot of my apps were SD card transferable. I think it's taking longer cause it has to shutdown those apps and make them unavailable while in USB disk drive mode. Only a guess though.

That seems logical. I dont have any apps on my SD card and it loads fast.

I just timed it on mine (latest OTA) on Vista 64. It took 5 seconds from the point I tapped disk drive to it showing up. Then again, unlike some of you I dont move ANYTHING to the SD card. IF an app wants to save files to the SD card that's fine but I won't let the app run there.

Mine does this as well. It has since day 1.

It also always goes to disk drive mode even though I told it to always just charge, however, I noticed after this last update that may have been fixed. Anyone else?

Actually that's not what we're talking about. We're saying it takes a while to load disk mode. I think for you the default has been set to charge only. Go to settings, Connect to PC, and change the default to disk drive if that is what you want.

Mine takes a little bit to do it as well. Not that big of a deal.

I know what the thread was about, that is why I said mine has done that since day 1. Mine also takes a few min to finally mount.

I was just adding the other issue of the mounting settings while I was here in case they were related. Sorry for the confusion. ii
Yes mine is set to default to "Charge Only" only but it still mounted the drive after a few min even with that set. I thought the two may have been connected. This seems to work now after the last patch.

As for the original topic again, mine still take a few min to mount the drive when I tell it to. It also does this on various computers, it is weird...

Oh okay. Now I understand. Yeah that is a bit strange if it's been happening since the day you got it.

I did a format and it is still slow loading up on my PC. It must be because i have apps on my SD Card.. It is annoying...

It definitely is. I've gone down from 101 apps to 70. Although I'm not sure how many of them were on my SD card my time has gone done from nearly 1 minute to around 25 seconds. I currently have 27 apps on my SD.

Just FYI the charging problem is now working as it should after the last patch. My phone now just charges when I connect it to the PC.

I have to manually select the "Mount as a drive" as it should be. When I do it still takes some time before it mounts so the original problem of the thread is still there for me as well.
