Can anyone provide any help on this? I am at a total loss to understand why I am getting this error of what is even causing this.

All,

Started to get this error during my backup.  I have looked through the log files and I can't find anything that points to what is causing this error.  Only thing that I assume is that it's happening in /photos/Laptop1, but not really sure.
How can I determine just what is causing this error?  I can't get backups to complete so this is a big issue for me.  This is my personal stuff that I am backing up but there are gigs and gigs of photos that I need to ensure get backed up.

Ran the following command and that worked just fine:
tar -cvf - /photos/Laptop1 |cat >/dev/null

Below is the log file, would appreciate any help on this.
