I have a big file, like 2GB, and would like to move it from
Network -> Bookroom -> Users -> Public
(this is the computer in the bookroom in the house)
to
c:\myfiles
and they are actually on the SAME hard drive (and same partition). But copying still takes a minute or so?
I thought if on the same hard drive and partition, then it is a "move" and it should take 2, 3 seconds only.
that public folder also is \\Bookroom\Users\Public
Update: Sorry, I actually mean "move" all the way... so it is not copy but move. So that's why I thought it should take 2, 3 seconds only.
