If they don't compare then I guess I'm doing a return... but it is obvious from the time it is taking to do the copy that even if it is legit I can only consider this to be static storage.
No point in doing a backup to anything unless your confident you'll be able to use it to do a restore - and the only way you'll know that you can do a restore, is to do a restore.
