We have 80-something branches all over the country, which is why I started deploying preferred servers on local file servers and desktops a long time ago. Originally deployed for packages when performing upgrades (Office 2013, which is about 1.5GB), I then expanded it to include images, drivers and patches afterwards. I just don't understand the difference well enough to know whether using local severs/desktops in branches as preferred servers is better than Multicast or not. I've had a great deal of success with the current setup, but I am not opposed to changing it if there's a better way.
