The first copy of anything big will suck ass… and why else would you get a 36TB drive if not to copy a lot of data to it?

My primary storage use-case is physical media backups. I literally don’t care how long it takes to store, a bluray is 70GB and I’ve got around 200 of em to backup.

Does it really matter that much if the first copy takes a while though? Only doing it once and you don’t even have to do it all in 1 go. Just let it run over the weekend would do though.

It matters to me. I got stuff to back up regularly, and I ain’t got all weekend.

It’s only the first copy that takes such a long time. After that you only copy the changes.
