Perhaps this is answered somewhere, but I only seem to find discussion and potential solutions that aren't across many years.
I currently am transferring a large amount of data (10TB) from one Server 2012 to another of the same. The switch is a gig-switch, the NICs are both gig-NICs. It is taking more than 3 days for the copy, or to use perhaps an easier number, more than 9 hours to transfer 1.2TB. In the first minute or so the line was saturated. Then, rather quickly, it dropped significantly, hovering back and forth generally speaking on either side of 35.0 MB/s. Nothing else is running on either server other than typical overhead processes, and during this process there have been no outside connections.
What am I doing wrong?
