For the routine file copy stuff, I still like TeraCopy but I find the latest beta version works better on W7.

You could give this a try:
FastCopy
Because Reading/Writing are processed with no OS cache at all, other applications aren't easy to become heavy.
It can bring out Reading/Writing performance that is close to device limit.
Include/Exclude Filter (UNIX Wildcard style) can be specified.
It runs lightly, because MFC is not used. (made by Win32 API and C Runtime only)
You can modify this software, because all source codes have been opened to the public in the BSD license.

Read/Write も、OS のキャッシュを全く使わないため、他のプロセス (アプリケーション)が重くなりにくくなっています。
可能な限り大きな単位で Read/Write するため、デバイスの限界 に近いパフォーマンスが出ます。
Include/Exclude フィルタ(UNIXワイルドカード形式)が指定可能です。
MFC 等のフレームワークを使わず、Win32API だけで作っています ので、軽量&コンパクト&軽快に動作します。
全ソースコードは BSD ライセンスで公開していますので、VC++ 等 をお持ちであれば、ご自由にカスタマイズしての利用も可能です。
For one thing, if you have a few thousand files and try to drag & drop with explorer, it will spend like, hours collecting all the filenames. RichCopy just starts copying right away as it's a command line tool with a Gui dressing. I think that's what's meant about caching etc.. along with file system caching.
One thing is certain.. Something must be done.. I removed Teracopy, installed Rich Copy, but found it to be not so fast either. I then decided to intiate a 216 file transfer from one drive to another last night through windows.. When I checked on it this morning, it was about half way, but the dialog was up asking what I wanted to do, as a number of files I was transferring already existed in the destination directory. I set it to overwrite all, and now 3.5 hours later, it looks like this..
Try this;
KillCopy
Don't be disturbed by the "unusual" English, it very fast and reliable. Does not suffer from some of Teracopy's quirks when transferring large files etc. Especially on networks where Teracopy also has a lot of quirks.
Or just use a file-backup program as previously suggested.

Strange..I use Tera for everything I push out on to my two external USB drives
Are you sure it's not your Anti virus causing those extended stop and go issues?
(like checking it once on the sending drive and a second time on the receiving drive)
