Hi,

 

I have a 2TB Linkstation live, doing it's first ever backup to a 2TB attached wd My Book (formatted to XFS)

 

It is backing up 700 Gig in total, it's been running for about 15 hours and is only circa 50 Gig through!

 

Target drive is not going into powersave mode or anything crazy, the whole process just seems to be taking an age (I reckon it'll take 5 or 6 days at this pace!)

 

Any Ideas?

 

Regards,

 

 

Mimizan
