When the status bar gets to the end you here a "boing" type sound and only about 20% of the pics actually make it. This is being done over wireless.

Any idea what the issue is?
Try a smaller number of pictures? From where are you copying?

Probably an HFS+ to the "whatever file system WHS uses" issue. I assume it is based on NTFS and while Mac OS plays okay with NTFS, there are some limitations. It might be easier to go to a FAT formatted external and then copy to the server.
