Alternative to cp command

Good Afternoon,

I'm backing up a folder from one NAS to another using a unix script using
Code:
cp

. Its a lot of files and takes several days to complete. Most of the files don't change from week to week. Is there a command that would be quicker?

Also note, the backup needs to be ready-to-use in an instant- not in an archive or something that would need to be extracted or anything.
