Mungkin masih banyak yang belum mengenal Robocopy ini . Robocopy (Robust File Copy) adalah perintah DOS yang berguna untuk mengopi file atau folder. Robocopy terdapat mulai dari versi Windows Vista hingga Windows 8.1 sekarang ini. Robocopy bisa menjadi alternatif pilihan untuk mengopi file-file selain Windows Explorer.
Menurut saya, robocopy memiliki kecepatan mengopi lebih tinggi daripada Windows Explorer. Dari tes yang saya lakukan terhadap file yang besarnya sekitar 1.67 GB, robocopy hanya memerlukan waktu 1 menit 4 detik, sedangkan Windows Explorer membutuhkan waktu 1 menit 9 detik. Ini mungkin karena ukuran file yang kecil, sehingga hanya berbeda beberapa detik saja, namun untuk file yang lebih besar robocopy dapat membalap laju copy Windows Explorer.
Pada saat menggunakan program yang sangat berat seperti games dan program lainnya, process explorer.exe hanya menggunakan sedikit memori RAM. Jika kita mengopi file di saat explorer.exe menggunakan memori RAM yang sangat kecil, otomatis kecepatan mengopi akan berkurang drastis. Namun bagi robocopy, tidak berpengaruh terhadap explorer.exe.
Untuk menggunakan robocopy sangatlah mudah. Caranya dengan cara menuliskan:
cmd trus enter lalu masukkan perintah berikut :
robocopy (source) (destination)
Tulis perintah tersebut di dalam Command Prompt. Contoh:
robocopy D:\Musik E:\Musik /copyall
Robocopy = perintah utama
D:\Musik = lokasi folder yang akan di copy file-filenya
E:\Musik = lokasi folder yang menjadi tempat tujuan file-file yang di copy
/copyall = atribut untuk mengopi semua file yang ada di dalam folder source
Untuk atribut lebih lengkap, anda dapat mengunjungi situs TechNet Microsoft. Untuk contoh langkah-langkah mengopi file menggunakan Robocopy akan dijelaskan berikut.
1. Buka Command Prompt as Admin.
2. Ketik perintah yang diberikan di atas tadi.
3. Tekan Enter pada keyboard dan tunggu hingga proses selesai
Dan ini adalah beberapa perintah di
Robocopy
robocopy <Source> <Destination> [<File>[ ...]] [<Options>]
