I'm not quite sure how you'd use 'dd', but cp or rsync should do the trick just fine. Note that rsync has the added benefit of being able to, essentially, start from where you failed -- but I usually reserve that for network file transfers that take long enough I'm worried a brownout or something might interrupt it.<br>

We need to copy a large (200+GB) directory from one filesystem to<br>
another, both locally mounted.<br>
<br>
I'm unsure as to what I should use to do this, cp, rsync, dd?<br>
<br>
Any suggestions appreciated.<br>
<br>
Thanks.<br>
