Best way to migrate data - ESXi (non-work)

Hi

What is the best way to migrate data from one iSCSI service to another that is essentially free? I'm moving my vm files to a new iSCSI service but every method other than using vmkfstools is dog slow (and that's a pain cos I can't leave it running overnight since the way I read it only does disk files). WINSCP / SP / FASTSCP is way slow, at least for me anyway!

Thanks

if your just moving I would say deploy Vcenter Appliance (tiral Mode add your host to it) Shutdown VM and click Migrate.
Veeam Free should do it as well

Thanks, I'll take a look, although I was hoping to copy rather than migrate just in case things go wrong Btw, tried Veeam, super super slow from the host I installed anyway. Might try a reboot just in case.

You could try creating an ovf template from the vm then redeploy.
