Export Fails is there a limit on Library Size?

I have tried numerous times to export my library using the Export/Import Calibre All Calibre Data. I currently have 128,044 books. I have successfully moved other libraries from the same Calibre instance but those libraries are much smaller. I have tried both exporting to a local drive and a remote drive with the same error. The error appears after about 5-10 minutes from starting the export. Here is the error I receive:

calibre, version 6.28.1
ERROR: Failed: Failed to export data. Click "Show details" for more information.

Traceback (most recent call last):
File "calibre/gui2/dialogs/exim.py", line 139, in run_action
File "calibre/utils/exim.py", line 204, in export
File "calibre/db/cache.py", line 85, in call_func_with_lock
File "calibre/db/cache.py", line 2984, in export_library
File "calibre/db/cache.py", line 1101, in copy_format_to
File "calibre/db/backend.py", line 1701, in copy_format_to
File "shutil.py", line 195, in copyfileobj
OSError: [Errno 5] Input/output error

I have checked disk size and that is not an issue. Any other ideas/suggestions or am I going to just have to manually copy the books over to the new machine/Library/Calibre instance i have setup.

Thanks
