Copy Multiple File Results - External Hard Drive

[kaybee]

Apologies if this is in the wrong section.

 

On my 60GB External Hard Drive I have a 19GB Folder which contains around 360 sub-folders which in turn contains around 4,900 music files (both mp3 & wma).

 

I have bought a 40GB External Hard Drive (to keep back-up copies of these files) and I have copied the files onto my desktop (in 2 'chunks' as my laptop drive is too small to copy them all on) and in turn copied them on to the new External drive.

 

Now for my question - after copying is completed, why, on the 'new' drive does it show the correct number of folders and overall size, but, around 200 files short?
