kemical (and all)
I realize this thread is a bit dated, but as far as I can determine, there is no solution thus far. Like all above, I have tried to do a back-up several (maybe as many as 5) times. I'm on one now - 3 days into it - and it is currently at 37%. I'm sorry but that is ridiculous - unless there is something I'm missing. I've done back-ups since the days of Tape-Backup drives (remember the old Colorado?). They were slower than say Nero back-up, but even it is like Warp 7 compared to this.
Any ideas/solutions? Or, am I just doing something wrong - i.e. wrong setting or something?
--> In all the forums/threads I've read, no one has yet offered an explanation of what the problem is. If I knew that little piece of the puzzle, I could sleep at night, have an awesome love life, live to be 125, and win the lottery. Or at least be able to figure out an answer.
