@miliriri Welcome to HP Community!

 

I understand that you are unable to transfer the files from Laptop to External Hard drive.

 

Do not worry. I will try to fix the issue.

 

Please make sure that the external drive has space.

 

If you are copying multiple files. Try to copy the files one by one and check.

 

Please refer to the below link to Resolving Low Disk Space Issues and Errors (Windows 10, 😎
