-If a single files is copied then this may occur in a request/response fashion in which the client waits until the copy is completed.
+Prior to a Copy or Move being started a metadata refresh of the directory or directories is completed prior to the copy or moving commencing.
-If multiple files are copied then this may be delegate to the Task  Manager and executed asynchronously. Such tasks can be monitored from the Task Manager when logged into the File Fabric in a browser.
+Transfer of single files is generally synchronous. The client waits until the copy is completed.
+If multiple files are copied then this may be delegated to the Task  Manager and executed in the background asynchronously. Background asks can be monitored through the Task Manager when logged into the File Fabric in a browser.
