Hello everyone, I would like your opinion on the time it might take to transfer 1TB because I have a hard drive to transfer to another, and I don't like leaving the computer on when I'm not around. I already have a good idea that it could be long, lol... thanks.

Good evening!
Assuming that your hard drives are USB 3.0 and connected to a USB 3.0 port, and that the average speed is 90 MB/s... that gives about 3h15 min.
At the maximum speed... that is 130 MB/s... that gives about 2h25.
At the minimum speed, which is 60 MB/s... that gives 5h15.
Knowing that 1048576 MB = 1 TB ;-)
Have a good evening!
