Costant "I/O device error"

I am using True Image 9 build 2302.

I have plugged in my image. The image is from a 500GB RAID 0 array and is about 45GB in size.

When I try to copy files and folders from the image i am successful for the first few files and folders, but then i receive the error message "The request could not be performed because of an I/O device error". From this point on I cannot transfer and more files unless I unplug the image and re-plug it back in again.
Once I have re-plugged the image back in, i can then transfer the same files that are causing the error (so it is not related to corrupt media) but only a few, I then get same error message, have to re-plug in and the slow, tedious, cycle continues. It sounds to me like a driver issue?

Has anyone has similar problems? Can anyone help?
And if Acronis support reply to this post PLEASE DO NOT COPY AND PASTE YOUR GENERIC RESPONSE ABOUT UPDATING TO LATEST VERSION AND RE-INSTALLING THE SOFTWARE BECAUSE IT IS VERY FRUSTRATING WHEN YOU TRY TO FOB CUSTOMERS OFF LIKE THAT.

Thank you.

 

I'm not sure why that would be frustrating. Each new build contains fixes for known problems (or at least attempts) and since you are two versions behind, why would you not want to try the latest? Seems like the logical first step.

Sorry, that was a typo. I am using version 2337.

The reason it is frustrating is that the mods always seem to paste generic responses to every new post, and often clearly dont read what has been posted. This is typical of product support forums and is obviously due to them trying to respond to more posts than they can handle; in which case they need to hire more staff.

 

I would thoroughly check your drives for errors. Sometimes an error message is not generated until a certain number of retries has occurred. This might explain why things seem OK for a while and then the error pops up. Check the Event Viewer as well.

1) Plug in backed-up image.
2) Copy files from image to HDD using Windows Explorer.
3) Receive error message.
4) From this point forward i cannot copy any more files from the image, no matter how small, without having to unmount and mount the image again. This is a 45GB IMAGE!!!!! I cannot do this for the entire backup file??
