    Proper ethernet port or USB dongle?

    (This has got me wondering what I've done with my laptop's USB ethernet dongle).
    Will work inside IR35. Or for food.

        If it's the former then I guess one of the NICs is 100MBps, quite common for older laptops with theoretical maximum speed of around 12MBPS



        Even a slow 5400 should have at least 30-50MBPS read/write speed
        True, but if both disks are heavily fragmented, copy speed will slow to a crawl. However OP says both disks are SSD, so it's not the disks I would doubt.

          Eek's suggestion/link solved it now getting approx 80-100MB/s.

          +1 for robocopy I use that alot when moving SQL Backup files between servers, with the correct threading, etc it can really fly.

          Cheers.

          I look forward to your all knowing and likely sarcastic and unhelpful reply.
