Xcopy command in batch

Question

xcopy %SOURCE% %DESTINATION% /E

Using above command am copying folders and files from source to destination.
While copying, its showing source destination of the copied/copying file in the batch. I mean sys out is coming.
is it possible to block it?
Just copy has to work without showing anything in the batch

XCOPY %SOURCE% %DESTINATION% /E > NUL

If also want avoid error messages:

XCOPY %SOURCE% %DESTINATION% /E > NUL 2> NUL

try this:

xcopy %SOURCE% %DESTINATION% /EQ

If you use >nul , you also get no over-writing message and Xcopy will wait for key pressing ... endless.
