+===== rclone =====
+If you want to avoid ssh/encryption (say you are moving many terabytes over 10GBe) to keep from slowing down your network.  You can use **rclone**
+**Server Side:**
+  - Start the server and use a non-standard port (using sudo to dig down into permissions of all files)<code>
+sudo /your/local/path/bin/rclone serve http /Directory/to/share --addr :8080
+</code>
+**Client Side:**
+  - **HDD - Spinny Disks on Both Sides**
+    - Use only 4 transfers at a time to keep heads from trashing <code>
+sudo rclone sync RCLONE_CONFIG: /destination/directory \
+    --metadata \
+    --skip-links \
+    --transfers 4 \
+    --checkers 4 \
+    --buffer-size 256M \
+    --multi-thread-streams 4 \
+    --log-file /somedir/log_file.log \
+    --log-level INFO \
+    -P
+</code>
+  - **SSD - Solid State Drive to Solid State Drive**
+    - To pull using SSD many transfers at once are fine: <code>
+sudo rclone sync RCLONE_CONFIG: /destination/directory \
+    --metadata \
+    --skip-links \
+    --transfers 16 \
+    --checkers 32 \
+    --buffer-size 256M \
+    --multi-thread-streams 8 \
+    --log-file /somedir/log_file.log \
+    --log-level INFO \
+    -P
 </code>
