What is a good way to transfer over 50GB from one server to another without download then upload?
 

I've seen/heard of some solutions, but the reason I ask this question is for backup. Does anyone know of a solution that is out there that could transfer GBs from one server to another without having to download myself and then re upload.

Transfer over 50GB to a backup server, what would work best?

of course there is, ask your hosting company.

rsync or scp, or if both ftp servers support it you can do server-to-server ftp using something like flashfxp

i would make a tar archive of the files and ftp from your server to the other server, works like a charm. This is easier then using rsync if you don't have any experience with it

remote ftp.

i always just go to host with any request.
