FTP a huge Size file
Dear All,
Good Evening!!
I have a requirement to ftp a 220GB backup file to a remote backup server.
I wrote a script for this purpose.
But it takes more than 8 hours to transfer this file.
Is there any other method to do it in less time???
Thanks in Advance!!!

I cannot compress / split it as the originality of the file is very important and cannot take even 0.1% risk. Bcoz when the system crashes, using this file I'll be able to restore the entire system.
