A few thoughts related to your comments about the SATA drives and SATA chipsets.
Check your PCH +1.0V setting in the UEFI, and the resulting voltage reading in the H/W Monitor screen. The PCH is the Intel Z170 chipset, containing the Intel SATA controller. Increase this voltage as an experiment.
The Intel SATA chipset's power saving features for drives are not configurable unless you install the Intel IRST driver package. Yes, I know it's for RAID, but also has a superior AHCI driver.
If your UEFI/BIOS has a SATA Link State Power Management option, disable it and keep it that way.
If your UEFI has any of the PCH ASPM options enabled, try disabling them.
Your M.2 850 EVO is a SATA drive. It just uses an M.2 interface.
Your 3TB HDDs, formatted as GPT? Does the file copy failures happen with all the HDDs, or is it only one that is a hidden offender?
ASMedia SATA chipset...![Censored]( "Censored")
Mine are disabled. What driver do you use with the ASMedia SATA controllers?
For an educational experience, connect a SSD to the ASMedia SATA chipset, and then run the Windows 8 - 10 optimize feature (manual TRIM) on that SSD.![Pinch]( "Pinch")
