my first attempt at the migration was via network, very bad idea! (extremely slow!) it said 20 hours.
so i went out and grabbed a 800 to 400 FW cable to do the job. It was my thought that based on the FW speed, it would take about an hour to transfer the 200GB of data and apps. It seems to suggest that it is going to take 4 hours, also it seems to go up and down in terms of time remaining ( not just down)
is all of this normal?
Seems slow, but i suppose there is more to it than the speed of FW, there are two HDDs speed capacities to account for....
well, i am 3 hours in, it says 1.5 hours to go....
in my opinion this is aggravating.....
i could have re-installed office and moved all my files over in no time, hell i a could have moved the entire drive over and had things up and running in no time, i guess i just dont see the value in this process...
