Solve : TeraCopy?

Answer»

Check out TeraCopy. It blows away the Windows built in transfer/copy. I have transferred over 2 GIGS of music in just a few seconds with it. Very speedy!

TeraCopy is a compact program designed to copy and move files at the maximum possible speed, providing the user a lot of features:
  • Copy files faster. TeraCopy uses dynamically adjusted buffers to reduce seek times. Asynchronous copy speeds up file transfer between two physical hard drives.
  • Pause and resume file transfers. Pause copy process at any time to free up system resources and continue with a single click.
  • Error RECOVERY. In case of copy error, TeraCopy will try SEVERAL times and in the worse case just skips the file, not terminating the entire transfer.
  • Interactive file list. TeraCopy shows failed file transfers and lets you fix the problem and recopy only problem files.
  • Shell integration. TeraCopy can completely replace Explorer copy and move functions, allowing you work with files as usual.
  • 64-bit OS support. Shell integration works in both 32-bit and 64-bit versions of XP and Vista.
  • Full Unicode support.
Excellent find! Works perfect!I have used it for a few months now. Moving around my music collection is a breeze with it!Yeah. I was trying to copy 10MB file using TeraCopy, and I even didn't noticed when it was copied.
With Vista's copy, it'd take quiet few seconds.nice find.
I ran a couple tests just to see how much of a difference it makes. here's my results:
4.29gb image file transfered from one sataII physical drive to another on the same computer
with teracopy = 3 minutes 5 seconds
without teracopy = 8 minutes 13 seconds

computer specs
Windows XP, 2x 250gb sataII hdd's in raid1, 1x sataII 250gb hdd, 2.66GHz Core2Duo E6500, 4gb ram
Nice! Less than half of the time is definitely good results ...and REMEMBER, copying files on Vista, even with SP1 installed is little bit more painfull.copying over a network is a little bit different story, however. Even over a gigabit connection:
I used a different file (329mb .exe) on this one because I didn't want to wait for an image file to transfer.
