Don't use cp -u, if you interrupt it while a file is being copied, that file will remain incomplete as it will have a newer timestamp than the original. rsync won't have this problem. I agree with the other comments that this is unlikely to cause a problem, but you could run hddtemp or smartctl with watch to keep an eye on the temperature during the copy. -- Neil Bothwick Q: Why is top-posting evil?
