I'd suggest that some data may be more highly valuable than other data on there.  So if you can pull that off and stash somewhere, that would be recommended before copying everything.  In the past I've made tarballs and moved copies around to various locations to preserve important data.  Once you have that, do the bigger copy of data. -- Joe Landman e: joe.landman@gmail.com t: @hpcjoe w: https://scalability.org g: https://github.com/joelandman
