Hi
Try to use SqlBulkCopy class
Here is the link to an example with some explanations:
Bulk insert into SQL from C# App
And the MSDN article is here Bulk Copy operations in SQL Server.

FYI, the SQLBulkCopy is very similar in performance to the BULK INSERT statement you specify above IF you set the Table Lock on.
