Robocopy can be used for Data migration
Robocopy (Robust File Copy) is a command-line file copy utility that comes with Windows Vista / Windows 2008 or newer. Until Vista, Robocopy was a part of Windows Resource Kit Tools as a free download (http://www.microsoft.com/downloads/details.aspx?FamilyID=9D467A69-57FF-4AE7-96EE-B18C4790CFFD&displaylang=en This link is external to TechNet Wiki. It will open in a new window. ). Unlike normal copy commands, Robocopy is designed for reliable copy or mirroring while maintaining the permissions, attributes, owner information, timestamps and properties of the objects copied.

Robocopy syntax
ROBOCOPY source destination [file [file]...] [options]
source | Source Directory (drive:\path or \\server\share\path) |
destination | Destination Dir (drive:\path or \\server\share\path) |
file | File(s) to copy (names/wildcards: default is "*.*") |
Copy options
/S | Copy Subdirectories, but not empty ones. |
/E | Copy subdirectories, including Empty ones. |
/LEV:n | Only copy the top n LEVels of the source directory tree. |
/Z | Copy files in restartable mode. |
/B | Copy files in Backup mode. |
/ZB | Use restartable mode; if access denied use Backup mode. |
/EFSRAW | Copy all encrypted files in EFS RAW mode. |
/COPY:copyflag[s] | What to COPY for files (default is /COPY:DAT). (copyflags : D=Data, A=Attributes, T=Timestamps). (S=Security=NTFS ACLs, O=Owner info, U=aUditing info). |
/DCOPY:T | COPY Directory Timestamps. |
/SEC | Copy files with SECurity (equivalent to /COPY:DATS). |
/COPYALL | COPY ALL file info (equivalent to /COPY:DATSOU). |
/NOCOPY | COPY NO file info (useful with /PURGE). |
/SECFIX | FIX file SECurity on all files, even skipped files. |
/TIMFIX | FIX file TIMes on all files, even skipped files. |
/PURGE | Delete dest files/dirs that no longer exist in source. |
/MIR | MIRror a directory tree (equivalent to /E plus /PURGE). |
/MOV | MOVe files (delete from source after copying). |
/MOVE | MOVE files AND dirs (delete from source after copying). |
/A+:[RASHCNET] | Add the given Attributes to copied files. |
/A-:[RASHCNET] | Remove the given Attributes from copied files. |
/CREATE | CREATE directory tree and zero-length files only. |
/FAT | Create destination files using 8.3 FAT file names only. |
/256 | Turn off very long path (> 256 characters) support. |
/MON:n | MONitor source; run again when more than n changes seen. |
/MOT:m | MOnitor source; run again in m minutes Time, if changed. |
/RH:hhmm-hhmm | Run Hours - times when new copies may be started. |
/PF | Check run hours on a Per File (not per pass) basis. |
/IPG:n | Inter-Packet Gap (ms), to free bandwidth on slow lines. |
/SL | Copy symbolic links versus the target. |
/MT[:n] | Do multi-threaded copies with n threads (default 8). n must be at least 1 and not greater than 128. This option is incompatible with the /IPG and /EFSRAW options. Redirect output using /LOG option for better performance. |
