Slow transfer speeds with teracopy

[tyl0413]

So I just noticed while testing my new SSD that teracopy transfers are capped at ~340MB/s when I can reach 1GB/s with explorer.
Same from a 10GB/s RAM disk so definitely a bug, update didn't fix it any ideas?

Do you have the Verify options enabled? That might slow it all down when doing a Copy.

Also are you copying from SSD to SSD?

If there is any HDD in the mix of the Copy, you're not going to get the full speed of your faster drive.

Yes SSD 1 is Kingston KC3000 benches at 3GB/s, SSD 2 is Intel 660p benches at 1.5GB/s read, 1GB/s write. With explorer copy from one to other I get the full speed of 1GB/s which I found out on accident, I thought the SSD was broken when I couldn't go past 300MB/s bc I always used Teracopy before (my bottleneck SSD before i could transfer to was a Kingston A400 at 300MB/s so I never noticed before or it's a new bug, could be either or both)
Same result when using with 10GB/s RAM drive, 300MB cap on TeraCopy, can reach 1GB/s SSD limit with explorer. I could only find info of Teracopys going faster than explorer online nothing about slower.

No verify option isn't on usually and it wasn't now either and it's a separate process after the copy but if I'm gonna find a replacement if this can't be fixed it would have to have a verify and not ♥♥♥♥ up dates option.

Try the older version of TeraCopy from their main site under the downloads section.

New teracopy can achieve something under 500MB/s while explorer can go to 3,0GB/s with nvme drives. I use teracopy only because it has simple "overwrite all".

Well that's good to know and what can I do so dates are actually preserved without using teracopy?

Is there any benefit of using teracopy over windows file explorer ?

Yes Explorer always was annoying to where it would wait long into the process to ask you if you'd like to overwrite stuff sometimes. I hated that because I like to start the process and walk away. I'd get so frustrated to come back and see it's waiting because I need to click to confirm and overwrite. *sigh*

All my dates ARE preserved when using File Explorer move/copy methods. On the files though; not the folders. It will change the dates on the folders as if you just created them because essentially you have. But all my files have their original dates from months/years ago.

It saves the "do yo uwant to overwrite?" prompt(s) until the end of the operation so it doesn't hold it up while you're away.

Yea where as WinOS old fashioned way of doing things. Oh hey lets just pre-cache the copy process; then ask the user a question after many minutes have gone by; THEN the actual file copy process begins.
