Second phase of testing with selected 6 file copiers for Flash drive to internal HDD and internal HDD to Flash drive transfersĪ. First phase of testing with 15 file copiers for Internal HDD to Internal HDD file transfers (one drive to another)Ģ. Until I upload my full review on Gizmo's Freeware for Best Free File Copier as editor George.J, I will give a sneak peak to speed transfer tests that I have done.Ĭompared to my earlier testing, I have revised the testing procedure and done 2 tests with the first test recording the fastest time out of the two.ġ. By the way tests aren't complete, plenty of other file copiers to test more. Performance also changed when using Kaspersky/Windows Defender as main antivirus for different file copiers. You can also set the speed of file transfer using the slider on the main windows if you are doing OS intensive operations. Options->Main settings->At minimized->Run in task tray Options->Main settings->I/O settings->Buffer (set according to personal preference)

Options->Main settings->Always show extended filter Options->Main settings->Estimate Finish time I still haven't checked the feature set of copiers, this was simply speed comparison test.

Here you can customize sound alerts to any notification sound/music you like, and even different sounds for normal/standby/hibernate/shutdown post process tasks. In FastCopy go to Options->Post-process(normal)->add/modify/del-> set your sound options. "Plus I am a geek about tweaking.so I can change the sound file alerts for copying with Copy Handler" You can set buffer sizes across different copiers. But now Copy Handler copied that same ISO in only 23 seconds ! "Ĭonsecutive tries appear to be faster when copying same file across source and destination, that seemed unfair at times, so I had to do all testing in Shadow Defender and reboot when testing each software and clear cache. "BTW I used copy handler and tweaked the buffer to 5 mb and i tested a 2.5 gb ISO that took Fast Copy 30 seconds and Copy Handler was taking 43 seconds. Now use normal copy of Windows, and then right click FastCopy(paste) You can turn this setting on as All users/Admin (press elevate button on top right of FastCopy). In FastCopy, go to Options->main settings->shell extension->Dont confirm in Copy(drag&drop). "BUT I don't like the extra hand holding, even with turning off confirmation it pops up a seperate window to ask where to copy the file to."
