The following robocopy command will transfer C:\Data to E:\Data with the following options:

robocopy C:\Data E:\Data /e /dcopy:t /sec /r:0 /np /xo /tee /log:c:\robocopy.log /mt:16

• /e — copy subdirectories, including empty ones
• /dcopy:t — copy directory timestamps
• /sec — copy files with security (equivalent to /COPY:DATS (Data, Attributes, Timestamps, Security))
• /r:0 — number of retries on failed copies: 0
• /np — no progress (don’t display percentage copied in the log)
• /xo — exclude older files (i.e. don’t overwrite newer files already in the destination)
• /tee — output to console window, as well as the log file (skip if using /mt)
• /log — output status to LOG file (overwrite existing log)
• /mt — Do multi-threaded copies with n threads (default 8)
