GatherBird Copy Large Files is a software application that lets you copy files over slow and unreliable network connections. It is particularly useful when copying files with Window Explorer fails due to the size of the file and instability of the network.
GatherBird Copy Large Files copies files up to 2 TB (Terabytes) in size (250 times as large as what a DVD can hold). GatherBird Copy Large Files insures the copied file(s) are identical to the original. GatherBird Copy Large Files is relentless in its attempts to copy your files, recover from errors, and automatically retries when necessary.
GatherBird Copy Large Files supports a resume feature and requires no intervention on your part to recover from problems. GatherBird Copy Large Files also works great for over USB drive connections and other devices. GatherBird Copy Large Files supports command line parameters for automation.
Sometimes copying files to network drives, especially large files, can work intermittently or lock up your Windows Explorer. Typically, in a business environment, some network drives and directories can be located anywhere across the country and be on a slower (cheaper) type connection.
Copying large files can be impossible or take multiple attempts because of network glitches that cancel the operation before the copy is finished. In these unstable environments corrupt files are commonly produced. GatherBird Copy Large Files overcomes all these problems.
The files get there and are exactly the same as the original. Just select the file you want to copy, the destination directory, and hit the Copy button.
Here are some key features of "GatherBird Copy Large Files":
· (If enabled) A CRC check of all data written to the destination file ensures file integrity
· Depending on the network errors encountered and the speed of the network Copy Large Files automatically adjusts the size of the data packets that travel over the network to avoid repeating those errors
· Copy Large Files automatically adjusts the speed of the copy to allow Windows to perform other tasks smoothly while the copy takes place
· The resume feature recovers from Windows lockup problems or when Windows was shutdown while Copy Large Files is copying
· Copy Large Files recovers even when the network goes down in total. When the network becomes usable again Copy Large Files continues to copy where it left off without any intervention required on your part
· (If enabled) Copy Large files detects if other programs have changed the source file or the destination file while it is copying
