Sorry for wall of text. Not native english so apologies for the terrible grammar.
Copying 5TB of media files from one external to a another. No folders, all are files.
Copying from exfat, to a brand new that I am planning to format to ntsf (was recommended this instead of exfat).
Reason for exfat was that the harddrives need to work with nvidial shield, different OS. But changing since I have been told that that exfat is risky.
I am a beginner so all I know how to copy with robocopy now is:
robocopy "the from folder with the files" "the new drive".
The quotation marks is what pops up in cmd when I right click the folder and copy the what you call it in english file location path or something.
Doing this on a laptop so have disabled the battery saving stuff with the usb ports, windows turn them off to save power, but disabled that so they dont.
Turned the sleep and shut down option to "never turn off" and so forth.
Did I miss anything? Looking for any heads up, tips, does and donts. Again I am a beginner, have used robocopy now with little sizes to test waters: 1gb, 5gb, 10gb, and want to get going copying these files. They are important.
