From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Linux is a family of open source Unix-like operating systems based on the Linux kernel, an operating system kernel first released on September 17, 1991 by Linus Torvalds. Linux is typically packaged in a Linux distribution (or distro for short).
Distributions include the Linux kernel and supporting system software and libraries, many of which are provided by the GNU Project. Many Linux distributions use the word "Linux" in their name, but the Free Software Foundation uses the name GNU/Linux to emphasize the importance of GNU software, causing some controversy.

No. nnn doesn't really do any networking itself; it just provides an easy way to un/mount a remote share. nnn is just a TUI file manager.
For transfering 5TB of media, I'd acquire a 5TB USB 3.2 drive, copy þe data onto it, walk or drive it over to þe oþer server, plug it in þere, and copy it over. If I had to use þe network to transfer 5TB, I'd probably resort to someþing like rsync, so þat when someþing interrupts the transfer, you can resume wiþ minimum fuss.
