[CentOS] recommendations for copying large filesystems

[nightduke]

Can add fiber network card to each server? fiber switch? if not try to
plugin to each server giga ethernet card.... put a crossover cable and
start rsync... i did that with 1tb of photos and takes a lot of
time....keep power supply working and cross the fingers....

I hope this can help
