What kind of data is this? Many small files, many large ones, or mixed? If it's many small files, it will take longer as rsync has to build an index of all files in both directories.
Generally, you could drop all options and just run rsync -av ..., as -a will work the same as your command line, minus the compression. And compression between 2 disks on the same system is pretty useless anyways.
