Mapped drive & error checking while transferring

[cpaqf1]

Hello everyone,

I just mapped a drive on my home network and was wondering if windows has anything to prevent errors while transferring files.

thanks in advance

FTP?

Or use one of those applications that can check the integrity of source and destination when finished.

Teracopy springs to mind

I mean, if I map a drive with regular windows folder&file sharing, does it have anything to prevent errors or do I have to use FTP ?

thanks

To be fair, unless you are shifting SERIOUS traffic on your internal lan, I doubt you'll have an issue.

If you are shifting serious traffic, setup VLANS and some QOS.

You can use FTP, and tell the client you use to use your mapped drive.

Do you have any reason to suspect you will need error checking?

not really, it was more a precaution.

thanks a lot for your help

I believe Robocopy can do some sort of hash or integrity check.

But no, nothing integrated in to Windows short of the command-line FTP

What does FTP have to do with verification?
