Hi guys

Just looking for some quick advice using robocopy. Im using the following syntax to copy from server 2012 to my synology nas. All i want is updated files to be copied.

robocopy D:\media \\mynas\media /mir

This works fine but every time its run it wants to copy all the files again. I have tried the /copyall function as well but doesnt appear to work i think due to my nas not having an ntfs file system perhaps?

I decided to try xcopy using

xcopy D:\media \\mynas\media /d /e /y /s and this seems to work great and only copies updated files.

Is there any real performance difference between xcopy and robocopy?

Cheers
 
Thanks Bledd will give that a go for sure

EDIT

Just tried a basic couple of files and it still seems to want to copy the whole lot again over to my nas even though they have not been modified
