 ==== Use mapped network drives instead of UNC paths ==== ==== Use mapped network drives instead of UNC paths ====
 RomVault supports mapped network drive locations as well as UNC paths. Mapped network drives on Windows tend to be preferred because they can easily be configured to automatically reconnect upon login. Although no official benchmarks have been conducted, some users report faster speeds when using a mapped network drive vs UNC paths. This may be due to the fact that a mapped network drive authenticates once instead of on every file access like when using a UNC path. Move operations with UNC paths will always use a copy & delete approach instead of a rename operation. RomVault supports mapped network drive locations as well as UNC paths.

 +==== Keep ToSorts on the same drive letter as the RomRoot ====
 +RomVault can move complete TorrentZipped archives and uncompressed files quickly with a move operation instead of copy & delete. However, in order for Windows to perform this operation the source and destination must be on the same drive letter. If you are an array user with a Downloads share and a Games share, you may want to create a root share so you can access both under the same drive letter.
