The best way to make compares and syncs faster is to make the hardware faster on both sides. Faster storage access and upgrading networking is the best way. 1gb is the most common …

You could also increase page file on the server. I'm guessing it is set statically if programs are crashing

The portable version has no limit, as long as it is run from a "removable" device

Did you enter an incorrect network password when using FreeFileSync? Or was the password buffered by windows in one of your earlier network accesses, and it was not correct?

I/O errors typically are related to an issue with accessing a location. Whether that is a bunk drive, or drive going out, or something else is impossible to know without peaking ar…
