File server migration Windows 2003 to Windows 2012

Hi

I am about to migrate some folders from Windows 2003 File server to Windows 2012 file server. I know I can use robocopy to this kind of job (I need to keep permissions intact NTFS and share permissions).

I found Microsoft File Server Migration tool 1.2 and hoped that I can use that. Unfortunately this tool can see only top level shares nothing inside. I do have some folders that I need to migrate right now but I dont want to migrate everything.

For example on ServerA i have one share named data top level share and underneath many subfolders. This tool will not allow me to migrate anything under data only top level folder will migrate. I cannot do it since it is 500 GB  of data I want to move little by little but this tool will not allow that.

Is there any way to move for example some subfolders that are 3 or 4 levels deep so I can migrate 500 MB of data at one time instead of big chunk of 500 GB
