Episode 88: Disk and File Tools — format, xcopy, robocopy

17 Aug 2025

Description

File and disk management are critical skills for any support technician, and this episode covers the tools you’ll need to manipulate files, drives, and directories via the command line. We begin with format—how it prepares a drive for use and what options are available for file systems and volume labels. Then we move on to xcopy and robocopy, powerful tools for copying large sets of files, including entire directory trees.We compare the syntax and features of each tool, explaining which is better for basic tasks and which is preferred for complex migrations. These commands may appear in exam questions that require you to select the most efficient method to move or back up files in a script or recovery situation. Brought to you by BareMetalCyber.com.
