Yeah, I know. Well, the site is fairly new, and at this point there isn't enough material to justify putting each item on its own page. When I do, the TOC will still point to the right place, though....

It works! [dances jig]
Yes, you're right -- it takes quite some time to copy 8GB. And with that in mind, considering it was going so slowly before (through the hub), it was probably working then, too, but taking a day or...

Time involved
I've left it sit overnight, about 12 hours. But that was when it was going slow. When I decided it had hung in the new, faster version, I had left it a few minutes. Took about 30 to get 18 gigs...

I used the option the program comes up with, which is, erase, then copy, initially. Then, I modified the options to use smart, so it would only copy new files (I was hoping to get it done...
