I sent some BTC from one hard drive, it has been in transaction for a bit and still not sent 2.2milliBTC fee too!!. I changed over to my other hard drive and it doesn't show the transaction. Is that because it has not been verified in the blockchain?

where's your bitcoin address place it here, so we can see what is the problem maybe too many few transaction make the transcation size become bigger so it needs more time to confirm |

Search your address on https://blockchain.info/ and see if the transaction is confirmed. |

It fucked up some how... *shrugs* I just wipped out the blockchain and started re-downloading, Transaction does not show up on blockchain. I just resent the coins from my second harddrive *shrugs* w/e. |

So they never got sent? Be careful as you might end up sending two payments.

Do you have either of the addresses that you sent the BTC to/from or the TX id?
If a TX is not confirmed by the network after 24 hours the nodes will "forget" the TX and the BTC will remain in the address that you tried to send it from.

That's not entirely true. I've had unconfirmed transactions (specifically, those sent without fee), that have been unconfirmed for 2-3 days, but eventually were confirmed. So I'm not sure what the hard-and-fast rules are here. |

Do you have nodes connecting to your client? Is your blockchain fully synced? Try searching on blockr.io

So I'm not sure what the hard-and-fast rules are here. This may have been an exception to the rule. My understanding of the Bitcoin protocol is that nodes should delete unconfirmed TX after 24 hours. I looked on google to double check and couldn't find anything concrete. One thing you could do to take care of this issue would be to send a TX that uses at least one of the same inputs as the unconfirmed TX with a bigger fee and this should be confirmed by the network. |

Different clients have different behaviour, some rebroadcast for a long time if it remains unconfirmed. Some stop broadcasting after a period of time. |

I've already re-sent the BTC and re-downloaded the blockchain. It was synced with conections, I have a feeling it might of been because I closed the client before any confirms. |

If you use an old client you might need to upgrade it.

Is sounds like you are using bitcoin-qt, don't. Multibit is a lot faster and easier. Multibit should be default client. |

Shouldn't be so, try to see the address at blockr.io. Once you send it, the nodes will broadcast it among the network. You can try to wait for a few minutes before closing it. |

Bitcoin-qt, for example, will keep re-broadcasting your unconfirmed tx. |
