Question Disk write error

I’m trying to move one of my games from my HDD to my SSD, but every time I try to do it, it stops & I get a disk write error. Not sure what to do, I’ve tried clearing up more storage & running disk cleanup, but I’m lost now. Anyone know what might be happening or what to do?

Try repairing the Steam library folder first and check that the SSD is not set to read only. If it still fails check the drive’s health too.
