So, what do you think? Have you used Robocopy as a mechanism for eDiscovery collection? Please share any comments you might have or if you’d like to know more about a particular topic. Not excited about using a command line tool? Tomorrow, we will walk through a Robocopy exercise with the same file I copied last week and I will discuss how you can build a Robocopy “script” in Excel (or use one that I already have) to make the copying and collection process easier. If you prefer a GUI interface for later versions of Windows, you can try Richcopy (which we will discuss next week).

SCENES FROM THE OFFICE SCRIPT INSTALL

Install a GUI version which includes the exe.

SCENES FROM THE OFFICE SCRIPT DOWNLOAD

Download the robocopy.exe from the Windows 2003 resource kit, or 2. If you have an earlier version of Windows (like XP), Robocopy is not automatically included with your version of Windows. To see all syntax options for Robocopy (and there are many), type robocopy /? at the command prompt.

Robocopy provides numerous options for copying, including how files are copied, which files are selected, options for retrying files that fail to copy and options to log the copy process.

If you have Windows Vista (or a later version of Windows, such as Windows 7 or Windows 8), you already have the command line version of Robocopy.

Self-Documenting: Provides an option to log the copy process for self-documentation, useful for chain of custody tracking.

Complete: Supports mirroring of the source folder so that the entire contents can be copied, including empty folders.

Reliable: Enables the user to resume copying where it left off in the event of network/system interruptions.

Targeted Collections: Suitable for targeted active file collections, primarily based on copying folders and their contents (files and sub-folders), not for deleted files or data from unallocated space.

Saves Metadata: Preserves file system date/time stamps which, as we illustrated last week, drag and drop does not preserve.So, technically, it has nothing to do with RoboCop, unless you consider that it protects your file metadata during the copy and saves you from spoliation of data. Robocopy is short for “Robust File Copy”. I mentioned that there are better, more forensically sound, free methods for collecting data. If you followed the steps along with one of your own files, you noticed that the resulting file appeared to have been modified before it was created, which reflects spoliation of the metadata during the copy process. Last week, we discussed the pitfalls of using drag and drop for collecting files for eDiscovery and illustrated an example using a blog post that I wrote about a month ago in a Word document for the post Five Common Myths About Predictive Coding.

SCENES FROM THE OFFICE SCRIPT MOVIE

Good movie for its time (the original, not the sequels). I may be showing my age, but I love the original movie RoboCop (1987).
