    Slow and slower files transfers >200G

    I guess in the 20+ years of using linux I never needed to make any large file transfers. But with replacing some older drives, I must now transfer up to 1.3TB of data. Unable to do so, so reduced to about 150GB at a time, and it still drops and drops to <Mb/sec, after starting at 35-40MB/sec...
