Moving files from HDD to SSD

Greetings.  I am looking for ideas to solve an issue that has been doing my head in all weekend.  I recently upgraded from 2 x 600GB Velociraptors to a single Samsung Evo 1TB SSD.  I kept one HDD in place to use as backup storage and after a HDD re format to clean it, I copied and pasted my whole FSX file on to it complete with add ons etc. Having done this in the past with complete success, I was confident in doing it again.  Now, when I try to do the reverse and copy it back on to the new SSD, it will not work. I get the window that says "Preparing to copy" for a few minutes then the window simply disappears and nothing is copied !  I have tried every method to move the files including 2 windows side by side and dragging and dropping, I used the "Move To" and "Copy To" feature in the menu bar but nothing works.  I tried small files and large, they all fail to copy.

 

I tried re installing FSX and Acceleration on the SSD and after setting it all up to how it was previously, I tried copying over the Add ons one by one, no luck, copying fails every

time !?

 

I Googled this issue but could not find any definitive answers.

 

Anybody got any thoughts and advice on this ?  I am using Win 7 Home 64 bit which is a fresh install on a new 120GB SSD with new MOBO, CPU and RAM.

 

Thanks.   Buster.
