Whenever I have a large amount of files to copy, I use Linux. Either boot the system using a livecd, and mount the Windows filesystem(s), or share the folder I want to copy and use Samba to mount the network drive. From that point I have the whole array of Linux tools at my disposal, including cp, mv, tar, and gzip. I've never run up against any limitations, except with FAT32 partitions which have a 4GB file size limit. But that is a limitation of the Windows filesystem, not of Linux. Use the right tool for the job, and Linux is a veritable Swiss Army Knife.
