turning this conversation around a little bit, using backup and a usb hard 
drive, what is the fastest way to backup data now?
i am being told this customer is looking for a better solution because to 
backup a NAS is now taking three business days.
I assume they're using an older version of usb perhaps.  What is the quickest 
method of copying to an external hard drive now?

I should probably go look at how much data they're copying.  I know there are 
about 100 people who work here.  when I did IT
for a local private school every teacher/employee put all their personal stuff 
"on the network".  That is probably some of what they're
also backing up....

  The built in hyperbackup tool does incremental. It has a bunch of 
  settings that control how long and how may versions.
