It only took 36 hours to backup 14TB... so what's that, 100Mbps or thereabouts? This was via USB-C from a Synology to the external drive. I tested the external drive for write speed first and could do about 220Mbps sustained for 500GB... so I guess the bottleneck during the backup has to be something internal to the NAS or perhaps the RAID controller (it's RAID6).
Still... it's acceptable as a full backup time. In future it'll rsync the difference. And something like 1.5 days to fully restore is not a nightmare (Cloud backup would be weeks).
