I want to mirgrate my Nextcloud instance from a VPS to server in my home. I run the Nextcloud AIO Docker container, which uses Borg backup. The backup repo is about ~70 GB.

How would I best go about transferring it? Is using scp a good solution here (in combination with nohup so that I don’t have to keep my ssh session active)? Or is there some other best practice way of doing this?

    For some reason scp has long delays between file transfers. Rsync is a lot better. I didn’t know about mscp but rsync has sufficed for me.
