It doesn't matter where the Symlinks point to.
Just copy them as Symlinks without changing the target, as FastCopy does it.
This needs enhanced rights, of course.

Just copy them as Symlinks without changing the target,
Or use the value that CopyLinks is set to:
Help wrote:CopyLinks=0 Copy file system links (junctions) as links and not as directories:
0: Copy links as dirs or ignore them (if IgnoreLinks has been set)
1: Copy links without changing the target path of the links
2: Copy links and change the target path to the target drive if the link points to the same drive on which the link itself is located.
