RoboCopy for maximum throughput

Another one of those notes to self:

Below command is very useful to achieve high throughput on a copy process on Microsoft platforms (do play around with MT )

As the MT[:N] argument creates  multi-threaded copies with N threads and will depend on your machines processor and memory configuration.

Example to keep to a local folder in sync with a remote source:

robocopy \\source\Calibre\eBooks\ F:\Calibre\eBooks /MT:64 /MIR /Z
