Win8 replication breakpoint resume Real-time monitoring Duplicate file filtering

  


Everyone has ever copied a large file, but waited for a long time but did not end. It is obviously anxious but can't cancel it. —— Once canceled, everything must start from scratch! On Windows 8, copying resumes will no longer be a dream, and no longer need third-party software support. This time, let's test the breakpoint resuming function of large files.

The original file location and the target file location are on two different Sata hard drives. Let's take a look at the hard drive information. The copying process was mainly tested under Windows 8 Consumer Preview. The test content was copied from a 2T hard disk to a 160G hard disk second partition. The content of the copied file is the HD video of the Windows 8 Developer Preview conference, which is 18.1G in size. First let's review the classic Windows 7 replication dialog: Let's take a look at the Windows 8 breakpoint feature and other easy-to-operate improvements. You can see the real-time speed and replication process in the copied window, which gives more detailed information than Windows 7. After hiding the details, the copied interface is similar to Windows 7. However, the confident classmates believe that they have found out that there are two more buttons at the top right of the copy box. The meaning is clear at a glance—— we can pause the copying process. After the pause, the display is as follows: When our Highness suspended the X button on the right side, the copy is considered a real cancellation. In this way, when we are in the process of high-speed file copying, we can pause replication for some other system resources at any time, which is very important for low-performance computers and even a large part of high-performance computers. In addition, imagine that if you are copying a relatively large file, suddenly the boss says that you want to have a meeting, the hard disk of the notebook is still rotating at a high speed, so that the cover on the mouth and the meeting will cause great damage to the hard disk. . Now it is completely possible to pause the copying, and continue to copy the process in places such as the venue, which is also very protective for the hard disk. In addition, let's take a look at the file copy function of the USB flash drive. I chose an older USB flash drive, and the copying speed is known as slow. The purpose of this is to better observe the process of replication. This time we sent two folders to my USB flash drive. The folder information is as follows: You can see that when you make two copies at the same time, Windows 8 will merge the copy boxes and it will look more intuitive. In the detailed copy dialog, we can easily find that writing multiple files to the USB flash drive at the same time, or only one copy is faster, or the copy speed of the two is not very fast: and we can pause at this time. A copy that copies the content that needs to be copied first is done in another copy process: In this way, we can complete the copy more quickly. If the copied source files are on different mobile hard drives, we can use one mobile hard drive for other places faster. In addition, it is not difficult to find that the copy speed in Windows 8 is also faster than Windows 7. There are also some minor deficiencies and bugs in the process of copying: First, when multiple copy dialogs are merged together, you can't just view individual copy details, or all of them (shown above), or not all. (As shown below), this will not be very convenient for viewing when more copying processes are performed. In addition, for the suspended task, when the recovery, his real-time speed will appear a virtual height (as shown below), the actual transmission speed can not reach such a large, but it will give people an illusion. The reason for this illusion is that the process of verifying the data when the breakpoint is resumed is also calculated to write to the USB flash drive, so there will be such a bug. I hope that in later versions, such a bug can be fixed to avoid illegality. The merchants used this bug to evaluate the read and write speed of their USB flash drives. After the copy is complete, let's take a look at the copying of duplicate files. We will send the first folder we just copied to the USB stick again: You can see the interface different from the original. You will be prompted to replace the same files in the same name folder, skip these file boxes and select to keep the files. Needless to say, the first two options, we can understand, let's take a look at the last option: At this time, the system will give the file with the same name in the two folders, and give a lot of detailed information for us to filter. At first glance, it seems that there is less automatic renaming, but a closer look at the description will reveal that if two files with the same name are selected at the same time, the file will be renamed. Just select a file to replace it and check the effect: You can see that only the selected replacement file is copied at this time. After that, let's compare the filtering of duplicate files in Windows 7. The same is to send the file just to the USB flash drive: First, the confirmation message of the folder is the confirmation message of the duplicate file. In contrast, it is not difficult to find that there are still some defects in the screening and exclusion of duplicate files in Windows 7. Although it is possible to select all of the subsequent files to perform the same operation, it is obvious that the duplication of duplicate files in Windows 8 is more user-friendly. A brief summary of the above content, sorted according to personal importance: 1. Windows 8 replication has increased the function of breakpoints. 2. Windows 8 has a more user-friendly option for duplicate file replication. Windows 8 copy dialog adds copy speed viewing for real-time monitoring and historical monitoring. 4. Copy speed in Windows 8 is faster than Windows 7 (due to preliminary exploration, more attention to interface and ease of use, this article There are many interference factors, and it is necessary to repeat the test in the future. 5. Multiple copy dialogs in Windows 8 are merged and easy to view. 6. The merge dialog box cannot display the detailed progress of a copy separately, but only all of them are displayed at the same time. In the initial stage of recovery, there will be a high write speed, and I hope to correct it in a later version. 8. There is no prompt for the folder with the same name, and the merge folder processing is directly performed.
