Im converting my setup from mac to windows and it has become the worst experience. Im in the process of converting drives to ntfs and while doing data transfers my pc keeps locking up and becoming unresponsive. I have 2 enclosures in a daisy chain. Owc 8 bay and owc 4 bay. While doing “backups” from exfat formatted drives to ntfs my pc keeps crashing mid transfer after a hour or so. I have sleep set to never and now set shut off screen to 3hrs previously on 5 min not sure if that was causing a problem. Has anyone else had this issue? Once im doing migrating data and all my drives are ntfs and not apfs or exfat will this stop or is there another cause. I have some programs installed that can read apfs and im not sure if thats causing an issue or its something deeper like enclosure problems or drive issues? Any help will be appreciated thank you!
