External SD card issues



I have a few issues with my external sd and I would like to see if anyone else is facing similar issues and if they could be resolved.

a) When moving about files already stored in the extSD by using my PC (windows 10), it just takes ages or hangs there forever. This happens even for the smallest files like 500kb and it was happening even on windows 7. For example, lets say I create a new folder and try to drag and drop 3 files into the new folder at the same time, it takes over five minutes for 3mb, if it ever completes. The same happens for the internal SD. I have lollipop but the same was happening with kitkat. Is this normal?

b) After upgrading to lollipop my extSD sometimes will not mount. Card is sundisk 32GB and works fine on my PC and my android phone. It is formatted to fat32. I had to format it on my phone because the PC format was causing the issue more often. LG g-pad 7 doesn't have an option to format SD, only to delete everything.

c) Sometimes when I move things within the extSD from the tablet itself (connected to the PC), windows explorer does not update the transfer, unless I restart windows explorer.

d) Sometimes when I create a folder on the tablet, my PC sees it as a file and I cannot open it or store anything in it by using the PC, but I can if I use the tablet. I don't know if this also happens with the internal SD because it does not happen every time so it is hard to check.

LG G-Pad 7.0 v410 lollipop 5.0.2
