Something faster than xcopy

    Hi All,

    I was wondering if anyone knows of a program that can copy multiple files from 1 location to another.

    The Source file will always be the same and the destination file will always be the same.

    I need it to be able do multiple copies at the same time.

    e.g. Source file = C:\ >>> Destination file = L:\
    Source file = C:\ >>> Destination file = E:\
    Source file = C:\ >>> Destination file = H:\

    As it stands at the moment i have written a .bat file with the following cmd that does it but the Xcopy command is really old and i wanted something that could do it faster?

    XCOPY "C:\Documents and Settings\User1\Desktop\55\*.*" f:\ /C /E /Y /I /H
    (I have 4 different batch files that run at the same time for different destination drives)

    Like i have said this does exactly what i want but i want to be able do it quicker
