I just bought a 8 bay NAS and I have some drives I'm copying data from onto the array.
I have a HDD plugged in via USB encloser to the NAS.
The copy process has no details, like the current file being copied and once you close and reopen the nasOS the estimated time goes away as the MB/s data and I couldn't find a way to get it back.
I stopped and started the process a few times while transferring 8TB and selected to SKIP files that are duplicates and everytime it would show the same amount of hours remaining for when I first started even though I know I copied more than half the drive. About 10-12 hours.
Anyways, I ended up just using FreeFileSync and comparing the data and sure enough the time remaining was only about 2 hours and most of the data aside from 1.5tb was copied.
I'm also getting the same speed I was getting in the nas OS using file copy over the shared directories.
Is there another file copy software for synology NAS or another way?
