If you’re using robocopy, I believe the switch to use is /nsoud -  you NEED to make sure that you are not only preserving ACLs, but Ownership and Auditing information as well.  Otherwise, after you migrate you’re going to have a tough time with any tools that do SRM, as all files will look like they’re owned by Administrators.

Use robocopy with the /sec switch.

 

Make sure your ACL's are using domain groups/users and not local ones.

We are looking at migrating ~400Gb of data from a PC to a new filer. How can we copy the data efficiently without losing ACL's, etc?
