In that context, it is always a bit of a hassle to get started and that is why I took the time to write down what worked for me so that I can re-use it in the future and so that it is there for your reference!ġ robocopy /E /Z /ZB /R:5 /W:5 /TBD /NP /V /MT:64 In this case I knew I had to use this tool, but because it can do so much more than "just copying faster", it comes with a wide range of flags and parameters that you can pass into. That Is why there exist tools such as RoboCopy that allow you to speed up this process considerably. (for example: if one file transfer is slow, the entire process becomes slow). I have always know that copying files through file explorer in windows is being done sequentially (one file at a time) and that this process is really slow. (for my future reference and in case it can help you!) In my case, this second horse really made my day and that is why I want to discuss it here. The idea was that betting on 2 horses is always better than one. As I was not certain that the restore of the backup would help me in time, I worked out an alternative solution which is what I want to discuss here. As I had only given myself one night for the migration from the old system to the new, I wanted to make sure that I could succeed. The raid controller was about to give up and time was of the essence.
Last summer I had a situation where I needed to migrate files away from a server that was at the end of it's life.
