ok iv got a 250gb externalHDD hooked up to my computer via firewire. now very so often when im reading writing alot it happins "delayed Write failed F:\M$Sf (or somthing like that) any way i was just wondering dose anyone here have a solution.
No, not having enough free space does not cause a delayed write failure.
Check the S.M.A.R.T. status of your drive using a program such as HDtune, just in case it's on its way out. You should also schedule a complete chkdsk:
Start > Run > chkdsk F: /R /F
And then answer Y when it asks if you would like to schedule the check on the next boot. Then reboot.
