Another option to check out is File Pilot Copy. 1 TB would be easy for it (it can do 60 TB update copies in a 12 hour window). They have a free “no registration required” eval download at http://www.filepilotsoftware.com . It is super fast, particularly for update copies, and has an easy to use GUI interface (but can also be run in a batch mode like a script).

TeraCopy is rather crappy.
I was about to copy a disk with over 1TB of sound libraries to a larger disk, before adding even more sound libraries.
I gave it a couple of chances, but it bugged out after a few minutes regardless of the folder depth and amount of data. A couple of times it just froze up and a couple of times it said some dll-file couldn’t be found.
As I write this, I run ExtremeCopy instead and it seems to work perfectly. It’s been working with the copying much longer than TeraCopy managed to stay alive and has already copied more files than TeraCopy managed during all my tries, so it seems to be much more stable.

There is a un-clip video to show comparison between TeraCopy and Windows 7, maybe TeraCopy faster than Windows XP, but not Windows 7 http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Z7-nlD2g6Rc

You must be joking TeraCopy is way faster than Windows
Done some testing …
3 Movie Files 2,58Gb total
Normal Windows Copy from external (X) drive to C: 16′
Normal Windows Copy from C to external (X) drive: < 8'
TeraCopy from external (X) drive to C: 3'
TeraCopy from C to external (X) drive: 5'15"

Besides this look at this screenshot, achievd a staggering 26Mb/s speed with TeraCopy. http://i35.tinypic.com/am5q14.jpg

I forgot to mention that Terra copy was no faster than Windows at all — exactly the same speed on 8Gb copy to USB drive.

Please be careful with Terra Copy. I don’t like this program at all. It really screwed up my files when copying folders with very deep subfolders. I am going to try Richcopy and ExtremeCopy but with much more caution this time.

Make sure to use a folder synchronization tool to verify your copies are correct, and to correct the mistakes. (I like the one in Unreal Commander.)

EXtremeCopy is an extremely fast copy file, it’s speed almost 2 times than TeraCopy 1.22 when copy large size of mutiple files
