So does sshfs, but its free, and it just works. I regularly move <1 to
60 gigabyte gcode files to my printers with it. The occasional 30 to 60
gigger gets moved to a pi clone over cat5-6 in 2 to 4 seconds. I don't
know why folks think they have to have an ap for something so simple as
moving a file. sshfs mounts the target device as if its a storage disk.
But since its ssh based, its also encrypted, making it relatively safe
from wifi snoopers. rsync operates much the same but uses checksums to
verify the copy is verbatum.
