I'm confused. Any high level copy on a sensible FS checks it has written? LAN has extra overhead of Network stack. Maybe DOS and FATxx on Win95 and earlier doesn't bother.

I've copied using dd also (handy to copy partition layout), but you need a filesystem check after.

An IDE - SATA adaptor direct to MoBo will beat most IDE or SATA in USB cases.

SATA SSD are a lot slower than NVMe SSD.

I do copy my Calibre library over the LAN in its exported form.
