I am in the process of cloning a WD 16TB Home Duo to a stock standard Seagate no fan, not networked normal external drive (see previous posts) and I am unsure if I am doing something wrong or could find some way of speeding up the process.

Through many files on the original 16TB, I am transferring 11TB, I have already endured 33 hours and 40 minutes, to transfer 3.62TB. 11 hours and 42 minutes for 1.26TB.

Even though I am autistic I did not inherit the math gene, and can't figure out, in layman's terms, exactly how long it would take.

Just hit 8 hours for 914GB

Could I improve it somehow?
