Time for a new USB cable 😅

bigkahuna1986 ,

Have you tried rsync?

QuazarOmega ,

Can it resume interrupted writes?

bigkahuna1986 ,

Heck to the yeah. I usually run

rsync -av src/ dst/

Which is verbose and archive mode (keeps mod times, user, etc). You can also add -P for progress.

Here is the man page https://linux.die.net/man/1/rsync

If it gets interrupted, just run that same command again.

Edit: also it’s usually preinstalled on every Linux distro and should be easy to install for Windows too.

QuazarOmega ,

Woah, that’s amazing! Can’t believe I’ve been sleeping on it for so long

AClassyGentleman ,

I feel like rsync may genuinely be one of the best, most slept on tools out there. It even works over ssh.

I like to add --ignore-existing to it aswell in case it gets interrupted. Useful when it’s a timed backup or similar

If it doesn’t ignore existing by default, what’s the difference between that and plain old copy?

bjorney ,

Rsync checks the files and only issues the copy if the file size/modified dates are different by default. Ignore existing will not overwrite a changed file afaik.

If the file is large it only sends the changed blocks (e.g. you have a 100gb database and only a dozen 4mb blocks have been modified it won’t send the full 100gb across the network)

By the way, –info=progress2 will show a total progress information.
