RoboCopy Command Help

Have a file share that I need to migrate from one server to another and retain all of the NTFS permissions.  The source is \\Server\Data and the destination is \\App01\Data.  Need to copy all of the files and subfolders.  

Can someone help me out with the proper command?

Microsoft rich copy is the best tool to do this. It is in both GUI & command line.
Has many features over robo copy. By enabling it's advanced settings you can copy very faster than robo copy. Can preserve NTFS permissions & you can change them too very easily. It can process multi thread which  can use to copy faster than robo copy. Try it
