Roshith Posted August 17, 2011 Share Posted August 17, 2011 Hi, I'm creating a script that copy files from a network drive to C$ share of around 1000 machines for deployment purpose. So which way of copying the files will be faster. 1) Copying directly from the network drive to the share of remote machines OR 2) First Copy the files from the network to the local machine(where script runs). Then copy files from the local drive to the Shares of remote machine Assuming the files are ~500 MB Roshith Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
PsaltyDS Posted August 17, 2011 Share Posted August 17, 2011 It will be faster if you have the files locally where the script runs and copy directly to the destination(s). If the script machine is pulling the files from a remote location, they cross the network twice: 1-Pull from share; 2-Push to destination. Valuater's AutoIt 1-2-3, Class...
