backing up a NAS drive (mirrored) to a USB sata disk. in past it has taken 7 hours. Today as I type this it has been 21 hrs ans only about 65% completed. It is writing to the disk. NAS drive is on an Ethernet connection and at peak is only using 12% of the bandwidth. Any ideas?

Lots of things could be going on here. Details of your configuration are not provided. Have you changed or added any new devices to your network? Have you checked to insure you are actually using the full bandwidth of your network capability? This could be an issue with the USB connection as well, cables, hubs, etc. can all effect transfer rate. In general the application by default should run at an optimized speed for your hardware.
