Why not just use:
copy c:\file.ext u:\file.exe
  in one shell and in another
copy c:\file.ext v:\file.exe
where u: and v: are the USB drives?

There is usually not much gain on USB when on Windows, especially in 
case of a single file which fits into memory (and the file cache) to do 
it 'simultaneously'.
This subject was discussed here already in the past:
