Estimate transfer time, project cost, and savings from automation.
Your Environment
SMB has higher per-file overhead than NFS due to session negotiation and ACL handling.
Use your measured NFS/SMB throughput, not your switch speed. Actual NAS-to-NAS throughput is typically 40–70% of link speed.
Concurrent file transfer threads per worker process
Cost Parameters
Fully loaded cost per hour (salary + overhead)
Business cost per hour of storage unavailability

Rough estimate only. Actual transfer times depend on NAS hardware, network conditions, file system type, ACLs, and concurrent load. Real-world throughput is typically 40–60% of theoretical link speed.
