whats the fastest way to back up railworks?

Unread postby o0nightfire0o » Mon Feb 20, 2017 2:25 pm

so I have at the moment 200GBs of routes and assists, it takes me about 6-8 hours to transfer to my back up area which is on an internal 4TB drive, is there a way that I can make new back ups go any faster? i think though it might be taking this long cause its a fresh new back up, but still is there a faster way?

I use MS SyncToy. You can have it configured to update only files which have changed between the source and the target folders.
