I'm attempting to copy about 20,000+ files from an external Windows (NTSC) hard drive, into my internal Mac drive. The copy process gets underway, reports it will take about 23 hours. About one hour into the copy, a fault is found with a file and the copy process simply stops, no option to continue.
In the Windows world, I can use XCOPY for such a situation, where I want to copy as much as it can without stopping.
On my MacBook (10.6.8), how can I execute an unconditional copy? And unattended, I can't babysit the process for 23 hours.
A Google search for "unconditional copy" for my Mac comes up empty.
Thoughts of others?
