Copying files seems slow

I am currently backing up files in preparation for my new hardware. I am copying file from a samsung F1 1Tb drive to another identical drive. I thought that these drives were fast, capable of around 40mb/s but atm the process is only managing 19mb/s.

Its now gone up to 41mb/s which is about right I think.

Nick, I would suggest trying TerraCopy... I've been using it for years, and it speeds up the copying process quite a bit
