    How long should a full backup take?

    I am backing up 1.2 TB of data and system files from my internal hard drive to an external Seagate.

    I started about 8:30 PM and as of 1 PM next day it is only at 61% done with 10 hours to go! Should it take 28 or so hours?

    Using Hard Disk Manager 16 Advanced.

    PS Upgraded to Windows 10 and sleep was set for an hour. I have since turned off Sleep mode.

    just for information, I have c: drive, about 90 gig of backed up size, and it takes about 1 and 1/2 hours.
    also, paragon has an option, in ADVANCED (not sure if in free version) to prevent hibernate or sleep until backup is done
