Transferring large folders of flac files

Hi folks,
I have about 1.8 TB of music stored in flac files, and the main copy is on an external hard drive. I want to make copies onto other external drives, as well as reload my MyCloud NAS. W10 file transfer always seems to time out, or stop for no apparent reason.

Is there a folder transfer product which would handle the transfer accurately without stopping?

Thanks for your attention.

Good Morning, cmjones:

Total Commander should work and it's free for personal use.
Sincerely,

I ended up using Teracopy, a freeware copy utility. A bit slow, but it reliably handled a 1.4 TB Folder. Thanks for your recommendations.

I was just going to recommend Terracopy!  The checksum feature is key.

I have 4tb's of music files I am in the process of transferring to a server from my Synology NAS.  Despite have incredible upload and download speeds on Mediacom, the process has been tortoise like. I have no completed all my 24 bit files and now starting 16 bit.  It has been two weeks of 24/7 and I am only 40% done.  I wish there was a faster way.
