Hi. i'm doing a speed test between my office and six remote offices.
One half of the test is being done with robocopy, and the log for that
tells me everything i need to know, but I don't know how I can get the
stats on how long it takes, mbps and all that kind of stuff with
copy/paste from windows. Anyone know of something I can use?
Thanks!!!

I don't believe there is a way to time Copy/Paste from within Windows.
You could use the Resource Kits "timethis.,exe" to time a command prompt
copy operation.
The overall time should be comparable to a Windows Copy/Paste.
 
Thank you for the help. I think windows copy/paste uses the sam RAM
for the operation as copy and xcopy, so i used that and did %date%
%time% at the start and end of the task and piped that to a log file.
Thanks!
