SSH Copy Large File to External USB Stops at~2.6GB

ReadyNas 102

 

I'm trying to copy a large Aomei backup file that is 170GB from the ReadyNAS share to a connected USB (Samsung 980 Pro SSD 2TB) that is formatted NFTS using SSH. The copy process keeps stopping when it gets to around 2.6GB copied. The first time, I got a "No space left on device" error. In which the Share showed if was full, but the file size was only 2.6GB. Then the next time, it just said "Killed" and disconnected the USB drive so it wasn't recognized anymore. 

 

Am I doing something wrong?

    Explain the command used. Always confused when people try to copy a file form a local file system to another local file system and tell us it does not work. There are nice options like cp and rsync for example for this simple job.

      Also, I am confused on whether the USB drive is connected to your PC, or whether it is connected to your NAS???

      cp -r -u -v /data/Chad/Backups/Chad-7610/System\ Partition\ Backup/System\ Backup\(4\)/System\ Backup\(4\)342.adi /media/USB_HDD_6/

       

       

      StephenB  The usb drive is connected directly to the front of the ReadyNas device.
