Incredibly Slow Restore - true image echo enterprise server with universal restore
Hello,
I am having an awful time trying to restore an image to a server from the recovery CD. Two hard drives were replaced in this server. The backup is from a differential which is 2gbs and the full image which is 95gbs.
I originally started from the restore CD and got a completion time estimate of 3 days. I then created a bart pe boot disk and tried to restore the image over the network. The estimated time there was 1 day and 4 hours. I then tried copying the entire image to an external USB drive and started restoring the from there. The estimated time was 1 day and 7 hours. I thought that maybe it was just showing an inaccurate time, but i have let it go all night and it still estimates 17 hours.
So to be clear I have booted from a bart pe disk and am currently restoring from an external USB 2.0 hard drive.
This server needs to be restored as it is used daily and there has already been one day of down time. If anyone has any suggestions please let me know. I am desperate and we do not have phone support.
Thank you.
