How can I get the increased rate in MB?

Deal all,

I have a directory called [msc]
I want to know how many MBs are transferred to it every 2 hours.
How can I do this?

Any ideas?

I have a simple idea but I can't translate it into shell script, the idea is:
1- get the size of the folder now, using [du -sm]
2- then get the size of the folder after 2 hours, using the same command.
3- then by subtracting the second value from the first value, I will get the increased rate in MBs.

How can I translate this idea into shell script?

Thanks
