Of course not, why should that make any difference?

Because it's Windows.

Does it stay in a specific file or take longer to scan specific file
formats?

8888888888888888888888888888888888888888888

It just takes longer all round it seems.
I never really timed it before, and only used to scan one
drive,I think it took 2 hours.

It now scans two one 80 gig and the 250 gig slave,
I have no idea what is 'normal' scan time.

A disk surface scan took 4 hours for the 80 gig drive
