xcopy to copy from one drive to another

I'm trying to create a batch file so that all my files on my 2nd hard drive
(which is F:) are copied to my external usb hard drive (which is G:)
Also...I want to NOT copy one file called gobackio.bin and the 2 folders
called Recycler and System Volume Information
I've tried using all the various ways that I can think of.
I've copied the line that I use for another xcopy but it still won't work
I want to keep the same variables at the end
xcopy F:\ G:\ /y/i/s/h/
but....that line just won't work. All I can get (from a screen shot) is
this that shows in the window:
F:\zBackups>xcopy F:\ G:\ /y/i/s/h
F:\gobackio.bin
and...there it ends...no copying is done at all.
I've tried using:
xcopy F:\*.* G:\ /y/i/s/h
xcopy F:\* G:\ /y/i/s/h
xcopy F:\*.* \G:\ /y/i/s/h
xcopy F:\ \G:\ /y/i/s/h
xcopy F:\*.* G: /y/i/s/h\
and, I think all other variations of that.
What am I doing wrong?
