The amount of data that needs to be copied all at once its typically quite large. If it were copied full speed all-at-once over your Wi-Fi, it would cripple your network for any other use.


It is not uncommon for that data copying to take all afternoon to overnight, and can only proceed when the computers are not asleep.
