Hello wombat
Sure I'll put some posts up. Soulseeker kindly has been doing the same for me.
I got my drives this afternoon and started to go to work. Hours and hours later, I'm actually doing something in the right direction. Don't ask me, God only knows where the time goes in IT world. After finally finished trawling the forum and comprehending how I should go about this upheaval, I've finally got a backup going of my "C" file on the Duo. Using one of the new Samsung F4's in an external caddy off of the Duo. It looks like it's backing up about 5GB an hour. Can that be right? Seems slow. How long is 1400GB going to take? On 5GB an hour about 12 days?
Anyone out there, can this be right? 1.5TB in 12 Days? 5GB an Hour?
Someone get back to me on this one. I don't know if it's the caddy, the hard drive or the Duo or What? Someone give me some pointers here please. Even if you think it's about right. Please let me know.
Formatted the external to ext3 aswell. And 1Gb of Ram.
Soulseeker. How's your backup restore going? How long for how much of a backup do you think?
5GB an hour just seems slow.
