I/O error while backing up

Hello!

I'm trying to back up my MacBook hard drive to an external drive via SuperDuper! but it fails to copy everytime, saying it's unable to copy a certain file (which is different every time).

I searched this support forum for a solution and decided do "zero" the external hard drive, without success.

I asked help in another Mac forum and I realised my partition scheme wasn't "GUID_partition_scheme" so I fixed that and tried again... and I'm still unable to complete a backup.

So I'm back here, aking directly for help this time

Is there a way to know if it's a hardware problem?

Me external hard drive is a 250 GB Seagate in a NexStar3 USB/FW enclosure. I used the Firewire interface to backup.

Thanks!

Luc
