While testing my answer to this question, I noticed that Explorer's copy/move operation ground to a halt when copying a symbolic link from one drive to another. It pegged one CPU core and wedged itself so severely that I had to terminate the process. This happened multiple times, even when I just moved the symlink without the surrounding directory hierarchy. My workaround was to perform the move of the directory structure using the robocopy tool:
robocopy C:\source\root E:\dest\root /e /move /sl
