I don't own the other server or have any control over it, so the cpanel idea wont work. Also it's not a backup, it's a lot of separate little player created files for old games. I'd assume the average file size is under 1mb (although the file sizes vary a lot), and the whole thing would take up about 5-6gb. I'd also need to sync the archive on a daily basis. So like you said, I probably don't want to be doing this through php (then again this is just an assumption).

Wget should be able to do this pretty efficiently, at least my friend who has a shared account on 1and1 can mirror the archive without any problems.

Thanks though, if worse comes to worst I'll do some local php/ftp tests and see how those work.
