Paul's suggestion to use --files-from is good. Use something like "find SRC -mtime -60" to make the file list. However you accomplish this copy, I suggest that you take this opportunity to move the files to an LVM volume. That way, in the future, you can take block-level snapshots and move the partition to another disk as necessary with no downtime.
