I love computers

revchrisI just installed a third hard drive, and am rearranging things.
I have a 250GB C: drive, where windows and all the apps live. I added a 500GB drive, and moved it to D:, after moving the old 150GB D: drive to J: (where the open drive letters are) first. Now I'm copying (via xcopy) everything from J: to D:.
The MP3s playing on Winamp (from the C: drive) noticeably slow down when I start the xcopy. If I stop the copy, they speed back up. I set Winamp to have "Above Normal" priority, but that doesn't change it. Really, it sounds just like what happens if you play a record at a slower speed (ie - playing a 45 at 33rpm).
