[QUOTE="HAH, post: 844643, member: 95744"] Finally, when I got up this morning it was done it's now the 12th of May. So that's 3 and half days it takes to copy 644GB from a FireWire 400 HD to a Time Capsule 1T (connected to my iMac with a Ethernet caple) using SuperDuper. That's a bloody long time. It's now preparing the first backup directly to the Time Capsule and according to the article, this may take long. I'll just go to work and let it work on it. I know it's a minor thing but I hope the backup drive icon on my desktop will become coloured Time Machine icon like it used to be. Right now it's just a white drive icon, heh. Conclusion: If you have a large backup that you want to move this way, it takes quite a while. My iMac did nothing else in this time apart from synchronizing my iPhone a couple of times. For everything else I used my MacBook. [/QUOTE]
