Test 3 Software to Speedup Copying File on Windows OS
Actually there are four that I want to test on this topic, because one of the four software still available in beta version so I only test 3 software. The software that I want to test is TeraCopy, Extreme Copy and Copy Handler. All program on this test is stable version, free and newest version. All of software mentioned here work on Windows XP, Vista and Windows 7.
The software to speed up copying files in windows OS is useful if you copying lots of files or copying large file to or from hard disk.
For comparison, before using all of software mentioned above, I copy a file with a size 1.09 GB from hard disk to flash disk without file copy accelerator, and the result:

File Name: | Prince Of Persia The Sands of Time (2010) |
Size | 1.09 GB |
Completed | 00:3:46 |
Here test result when copying the same file using windows copy accelerator:
A. TeraCopy
TeraCopy is a compact program designed to copy and move files faster and more secure at the maximum possible speed.

@vmancer, yes, I have tested all them
Thanks for sharing.
I think that Extreme Copy is better than others.
is it true these softwares can really speed up the process of copy files?
I have yet to believe it.
Where Is Supercopier…………? ?
@York, Im not tested Supercopier because it available in beta version
I vote TeraCopy because it faster than others
you should test again in Windows 7 with more types of file , and you will found TeraCopy is not the best among them, even better than Windows Explorer
