What filesystem are you using on this drive?

Replying to x190:

It is NTFS with the NTFS-3G driver.

Ensure that your ​driver is up-to-date. A startpage search shows ​many ​similar ​issues. Suggest you reformat to HFS+, if possible.

  • Resolution set to invalid
  • Status changed from new to closed

And please don't open bugs where Transmission has nothing to do, i.e. the error comes from the operating system, Transmission treats all file systems the same (and not all file systems work the same, FAT32 and NTFS have size limits, file name restrictions, etc.)
