The time it takes to copy the data?
If the transfer speed is:
16MB/s - 20MB/s (smal files)
and the amount of data is 200GB
how long will it take to copy the data?

Re: The time it takes to copy the data?
How fast it will take to copy your data is dependent on your computer's hardware, so the amount of time needed will be different for everyone.
Re: The time it takes to copy the data?
200 GB approximately 204800 MB (x)
Copying Speed 16 MB (y1) to 20 MB (y2)
x/y1 = 12800 seconds (or) approx 3½ hours
x/y2 = 10240 seconds (or) approx 2¾ hours
3 to 3½ hours. Give or take a couple of minutes.

SuperDude - the average copy speed will never be larger than 16 MB/s for small files (eg graphics) having any 5400RPM or 7200RPM SATA 3 hard disk.
Copying small files will always be time-consuming!
I would like the technology to go up, but it seems that this will not change for the average HDD user rather than expensive SSDs and I'm disappointed.
