If there's bandwidth, sure. Hard to give advice without knowing what for though.

You might hit a file size limit with some utilities when trying to move a 10Gb file to another system. For example, the FireFTP add-on for Mozilla Firefox currently has a 2Gb file size limit.

I would suggest trying rsync for it's convenience. There are doubtless other ways.
