Download issues
Is anyone else having issues with downloading games to your pc? I have been trying to download Mass Effect Legendary Edition. The download is all I have running; there are good download speeds but there will be times where no downloading is happening. 0MB per sec. My pc has Radeon rx 5500, Ryzen 5, 32 gb ram. Should be no problem. Also I'm trying to put it on an SD card with plenty of space.

I think I found an external thread that helped me so I will share it here.

Are you trying to save on an SSD or really an SD card, like used in camera or phones?

SD like phones and tablets. I switched to an external drive for now.

It's a terrible idea using SD cards. They're simply too slow.
And if using external drives for your games installtions be award you can run into all kinds of issues.

I don't have enough hd or ssd space so I needed to improvise. After seeing how ridiculously slow the sd card is, I am not using it to finish. I had total stoppage while the pc was waiting for it to save. ridiculous!
