I am going to move my G2 based site, and am looking for any tips when it comes to large sites. I have about 160GB worth of images, and about 200,000 files.

Is there a script that can mirror data using ftp? rsync and mirrordir may not be supported on shared hosting, I did it 2 years ago, but I forgot the command I used. As the alternative I can download and upload all data but don't really want to do it if there is a faster way to do it.

Thank you
