    Hi,

    What sort of access to you have to the files where they are now and where they are going to?

    If you've got ssh access to either box you should initiate the transfer from there rather than your PC.

    Moving by rsync. I once migrated for one of our customers with 150GB+ data. It takes long time, but doable :) If you don't have ssh access, you can ask your host to do it for you. Not sure if they can do for free, a small fee can be applied

    Rsync or scp if you have shell access. Both should be resumable if the connection drops for whatever reason.

    Or ask your new host to transfer it for you.

    The best bet would be doing a remote copy via FTP. Do you have shell access or root access? If it's shared, i doubt it though.

    Use wget...it will not die and restart if a file transfer breaks.

    wget ftp://HOST --ftp-user USERNAME --ftp-password PASSWORD -m -v
