Migrating my Mac backup (via Super Duper) from a plain drive to a File Vault protected drive. Hmm, 500Gb over USB2. Uh, yeah, this could take a while.
Figured that now was a good a time as any since a lot of the files were probably changed by my recent update to Mavericks anyway.
Surprisingly, it only took about 4 hours. Well, that was 4 hours total back up time about 6 hours elapsed. Forgot to turn off sleep and “put hard drives to sleep” options so it took a nap for a few hours before I checked up on it. Super Duper!’s “Smart Update” feature was able to pick up where it left off without much hassle.
