Slow startup and usage when you have a large archive

We have a user has has large archive folders stored on a network drive for backup purposes. these archives are about 15gb (a lot I know but apparently they need them). When this user was on Windows XP, Thunderbird would load up fine with no issues, however now the user has switched over to Windows 7, Thunderbird can now take a minute or two to load and it will also run slow. If I link the large archives up to my machine (also win 7), it will also slow down my Thunderbird. We have tried compacting all his archives, we have also tried disabling Thunderbird indexing and windows search indexing but there is still no noticeable difference. Does anyone know of a reason why there is an issue in windows 7 that there wasn't in windows XP? Thanks in advanced.

Change in anti virus? try disabling the profile folder from scanning and see if that helps.

Recent (12 months or so ago magazine) tests indicate anti virus programs scan files at about 1Gb per 10 minutes. So on access scanning is often the cause of slowness.

The actual brand of network device is sometime an issue (No I do not know why) with reports that Seagate devices are significantly slower that other brands. But that is only anecdotal and most information comes from Mac users (perhaps they do more backing up). An extension is that if the NAS brand is relevant, then so to would the NIC brand or firmware.

What happens if the original hardware is installed with windows 7 is something that would be interesting.

I cant believe i didnt even think about antivirus. Will give this a shot and report back.

The old machine would run windows 7 so i will check this out to see if it could be down to the hardware. It would be interesting to see if performance could be effected by different hardware specs or even firmware versions.
