Copying hundreds of gigabytes and want proof that every file arrived intact? The free FastCopy can verify copied data and record a hash for each file. It handles copy, move, backup, and synchronization tasks with options for controlling how files are processed.
How does FastCopy verify a transfer?
FastCopy can verify files as part of a transfer and record a hash value for each file. The Verify mode is available for checking data, while FC Verify Info Check is another named operation mode.
The program uses multithreaded reading, writing, and verification, along with overlapped and direct I/O.
Copy modes and filters
Choose an operation to match the task. FastCopy includes options for copying, moving, and backup or synchronization work; Move (no overwrite) is available when existing destination files should not be replaced.
- Include and exclude filters accept UNIX-style wildcard patterns.
- Unicode support covers filenames in a broad range of languages.
- Paths longer than the traditional 260-character limit are supported.
Explorer shell integration
FastCopy can connect file operations to Windows Explorer through shell integration. Drag-and-drop and copy-and-paste workflows can invoke FastCopy for file transfers, so the source and destination can be chosen through familiar file-management actions.
Pros
- Records per-file hash values during verification
- Supports Unicode names and paths longer than 260 characters
- Offers include and exclude filters using UNIX-style wildcards
- Integrates file operations with Windows Explorer
