CCC vs Finder for copy of large directories

I wonder what the pros and cons are to use an application like Carbon Copy Cloner to copy large directories of one disk to another (in this case, two external hard drives USB leads). I do not think now to clone a bootable drive/partition (I've done that too), but only to copy large batches of files (images or music files).

Benefits seem to me that you can record tasks and repeat them; If there are changes of source CCC will only add incremental changes (the finder doesn't know this but I guess you could check the box that asks if a file exists on the destination do not, copy all of these files). I don't know that the CCC are control, etc., or that the Finder doesn't do this.

I can't imagine not disadvantages. I don't think or the other method is faster the first time around.

Thanks in advance.

The only benefits from the use of CCC is that it retains all privileges for each file transferred and it is faster than the Finder is. I use CCC as my main backup tool. For cloning I recommend using disk utility when possible because it clones automatically any Recovery HD partition on a volume bootable, unlike CCC. CCC can create a Recovery HD, but apart from normal cloning.

  • BSOD after copying the large number of files from one disk to another

    Hello. I hope you can help because this issue is very frustrating. Just built a new PC:
    -Gigabyte Z97X Gaming 7 mobo
    -8 GB Corsair vengeance 1866 mhz
    -EVGA GTX 770 video
    -CPU Intel 4770K
    -two hard drives of 1 TB WD black in RAID 1
    -one ADATA 256 Gb SSD as drive OS
    -a 1 TB drive Toshiba
    -Windows 7 64-bit professional
    -F3 Bios Rev

    System can work very well for everyday, but when I copy large number of files from one disk to another (i.e. 70 000 files, 80 GB), shortly after (10 to 30 minutes), I get a BSOD bugcheck.

    I ran MEMTEST86 for hours without error. I can run PRIME95 with max heat without error. And as I said, it seems to be fine until I do a copy of large files. It seems not to matter to this disc, I copy to/from. Start WIndows, I see no activity CHKDISK. Ideas?

    If all else fails, there's only so much you can do with an error like this, checking until it boils down to a faulty processor that needs to be replaced. Start from 1 and work down:

    1. make sure your temperatures are the norm and nothing is overheating. You can use a program such as Speccy if you want to monitor the time - http://www.piriform.com/speccy

    2 clear your CMOS (or optimized load BIOS default) to ensure that there is no parameter incorrect BIOS - http://pcsupport.about.com/od/fixtheproblem/tp/clearcmos.htm

    3. make sure that your BIOS is up to date.

    4 if all else fails, the only one left to do is replace your CPU because it is defective.

    I think to make the Surface RT but y at - it a soft for Windows that is Director basic that you can use?

    Original title: windows essentials

    Hello

    Desktop applications only which can work to the Surface RT are Office Office RT and IE10. Apart from this, you will need to find a modern application (aka metro) of the Windows store.

    Thus, you can not install Windows Essentials, which is a desktop application on the Surface of RT.

    Video editing is very demanding on computer equipment/resources. Tablets are not the best devices for this type of work even if you do not find an app. I can see some video party 3rd edition apps on the Store Windows but I have no experience with them.

    Hope that helps.

  • Has anyone found a way to add a shortcut key for copy properties?

    I went to the new model of Tween (motion tweens), and once I get it, copying keyframes is is no longer viable, I find myself with the context menu of hundreds of times a day to access the properties of the copy command.

    My natural instinct was to map a keyboard shortcut to that, but it is not listed in the menu of the mapping.

    Has anyone found a way, perhaps by scripts in order to achieve this goal? It's driving me crazy.

    It is strange that you can set a keyboard shortcut to copy the movement, but not for copy properties. Might be good to ask for the service:

  • How can I find a copy of windows 7 for dell Xps 15 (L502X)

    Hello evryone...
    I have a dell xps (l502X) lap top... it's operating system (Windows 7 Home peremium) resulted in a mistake... and there is now no thereon oparating system, and I have no backup dist to restore it... My question is: there were can I download my lap top operating system?
    Tanks

    You misunderstood what George wrote.  Dells have a "factory restore Partition" and reinstalling Windows procedure that is described in the manual of your PC.  For example, here is an excerpt from the mine-

    Reference Dell Factory Image Restore [excerpt from manual for Dell Inspiron 1545]
    1. turn on the computer.
    2 when the Dell logo appears, press several times to access the Advanced Boot Options window.
    Note: If you wait too long and the operating system logo appears, continue to wait until you see the Microsoft Windows desktop; then, shut down your computer and try again.
    3. Select repair your computer.  The System Recovery Options window appears.
    4. Select a keyboard layout and click Next.
    5. to access the recovery options, log in as a local user. To access the command prompt, type administrator in the user name field, and then click OK.
    6. click on Dell Factory Image Restore. The Dell Factory Image Restore welcome screen appears.
    Note: Depending on your configuration, you may need to select Dell, then Dell Factory Image Restore factory tools.
    7. click on next. Data delete screen is displayed.
    Note: If you do not wish to continue Factory Image Restore, click Cancel.
    8. check the box to confirm that you want to continue reformatting the hard drive and restoring the system software to the factory condition, then click Next.  The restore process begins and may take five or more minutes. A message appears when the operating system and the applications installed in the factory have been restored to the State of the plant.
    9. click Finish to restart the system.

    You can find this information for your model on the Dell support website [through www.dell.com ] If you have thrown the manual of your PC and don't have any pdf copy of it.

    The manual of your PC will also be instructions for creating a set of "Recovery disc" and do this after the factory restore.

    In addition, the backup utility provided with Dells [mine is DataSafe Local, but that may have changed] has the ability to create a USB bootable from the "factory restore Partition" so that you can deal with a hard disk failure in the future.  So do because it is a valuable tool [an insurance against future problems] - they advised me to use a 16 GB USB key, but the image is only 6.2 GB so I could use a 8 GB USB key instead.

    Palcouk is also correct.  All this which may or may not have been provided with your purchase, Dell will provide a floppy disk to install OEM of Windows 7 on demand - the load is small, I think [I think I saw a post about it being $30].

  • Directories of destination for copy files seeded in to test the page seeded in Jdeveloper

    Hello

    I need confirmation on how to place the JDeveloper environment to test a seeded page - specifically the directories of files copied from $JAVA_TOP and < PRODUCT_TOP > mds destination.

    I want to start (and possibly expand) a page which is owned by the module for example AP, I took copies of

    Set 1) all xml files in $AP_TOP/mds (including subdirectories, in ascii mode)

    Set of 2) all xml files of $JAVA_TOP (including subdirectories, i.e. all of the modules, in ascii mode)

    Set of 3) any type of files from $JAVA_TOP (including subdirectories, i.e. all of the modules, in binary mode).

    My local JDEV_USER_HOME is c:\dev\oaf\r1211\jdevhome\jdev. I understand that these files must be unzipped in one or more of the following directories JDEV_USER_HOME/myclasses and JDEV_USER_HOME/myprojects.

    Could he confirm what set of files goes into what directory (ies).

    Together 1 must be copied into myclasses only, or my projects only or both. Same question for Set 2 and 3 of the value.

    I tried different combinations, but not able to get the desired effect. for example sometimes the module of the application (for example, HomeAM) appears in the Jdev browser in oracle.apps.ap.payments.server duplicate. This has been fixed when I deleted all the files in my project class (so keep the class under myclasses only files), now the controller (oracle.apps.ap.payments.webui.HomeCOJava) disappeared from the node browser webui.

    We are on EBS R12.1.3. JDeveloper 10.1.3.3.0

  • Problems copying very large folder to an external drive.

    The other day I tried to copy a far larger My Documents folder from the disk of Windows of a house system from XP to an external drive for backup.  He wouldn't let me.  I selected the folder of My Documents to copy, press Ctrl-C, then negotiated in the destination folder and press Ctrl + V.  What he did was simply created a shortcut to the folder destination.  However, I wanted the entire file to be copied.

    So I tried to use the Windows menu to do the same.  Then I noticed that the destination folder has the grey order dough and people with reduced mobility, but the paste shortcut command is available.  Finally, I had to create the new folder to destination and you drag the subfolders on.

    I tried to re - create the scenario on another computer with another external drive today.  I couldn't do it.  Could someone tell me under what circumstances this collage is not possible?  How can I overcome the problem outside of what I've done or through a DOS prompt?

    I discovered copy Document my folder must copy in the actual file.  We can find the actual file in the my documents properties.

    That's the ANSWER.
