I just bought a B3 to replace/upgrade the original Bubba that I've had for quite a few years.

I worked though a few issues and I've got it up and running.

Now I'm working on moving files between the two using one of my home computers, but with all the files that I have, the transfer times are becoming rediculous.

It occurs to me to ssh into the B3, mount the B1 on it and copy the files that way. But I wondered if anyone had a more elegant idea/story how to get this kind of job done.

I figure, at least it doesn't hurt to ask.

Thanks

Avoid ssh as the b1 will be slow

Instead, use rsync by setting up an rsync server on on of the machines and copy that way. Be carefull that you do not run rsync over ssh which will be slow again.

Copying over Mounted smb or nfs is lso fast but if the connection breaks theres no way to recover. Rsync over mounted smb or nfs is better
