My 500GB Samsung EVO 850 Pro SSD that is used for cache was nearly full so I initiated the mover this morning. It took 85 minutes to transfer 430GB, which seems exceptionally slow to me.

 

As this is the first time that I have ran the mover manually, is this the normal speed? If not, are there any settings and/or logs that I can look at to determine why it took so long?

 

That's around 300GB per hour, seems good to me, around 85MB/s, though it will depend on the average file size and turbo write enable/disable.

Thank you @johnnie.black for the response and reality check; it most likely felt slower because I was waiting for it to finish (aka the old watched pot of water).

 

I do have turbo write enabled and the files being transferred are mostly 5GB - 8GB sized files.
