It takes like more than a day to copy folders of total 30gb from my external hard drive to my macbook pro. And same is to transfer from one destination to another within the macbook. i bought it on november 2012 it was fast then. don't know what happen?

i am having problem copying any files or folders from any external device or moving between folders within the macbook. its too slow and takes a load of time. as you can see above picture it makes all clear.
its not even old i just bought it on november 2012. it worked fine 2-3 weeks but now it not good. even apps take more time to open. it is getting too slow so soon. anyone with solutions ? please help me.

What kind of external device is it? USB 2 is the slowest port on the Mac, Firewire 800 and eSATA and Gigabit Ethernet are much faster, USB 3 and Thunderbolt are extremely fast.
Also, if the hard drive is almost full things can slow down.
