ROBOCOPY (Windows utility for volume file copy)

I was doing a file server files migration to a SAN backend Windows File (Cluster) Server.

The total fileszie to transfer was about 450GB and using Windows Explorer style file copy/paste didnt work for huge folders. Then I found ROBOCOPY.exe as part of a Windows resource utility.

It can be downloaded here: http://www.microsoft.com/downloads/details.aspx?familyid=9d467a69-57ff-4ae7-96ee-b18c4790cffd&displaylang=en
