Thanks for the advice. I'm still in the process of copying files to another drive, so I don't think I'll need to freeze anything.

I'm not able to copy some files and I get an error message saying "I/O error", but I'm able to copy most of the stuff that I need. I'll probably have to re-download some files, but it's not looking too bad.

The only pain is when I try to copy files within folders withing folders: Explorer just freezes instead of giving an I/O error and I have unplug the drive. If I go down a subfolder and copy the files, Windows give me the I/O error and I'm able to skip the file and keep copying.
