If yes, rsync is then very, very slow. >=20 > Main hard drive is Western Digital Caviar Green 3 TB. >=20 > How long should I let this continue? =A0I could copy out as much more On 3TB and a full copy under rsync?

If you want to make a simple copy, use even things like cp -avp and you will get the copy much much faster. > I intend, after fsck_ffs -y from NetBSD terminates, or I terminate it > with Ctrl-C, to open the computer and look for dust or loose > connection. =A0I think I will do the latter this evening (like about 16 > hours from now).
