Nobody's mentioned Gigabytes, GBs. That more likely how much data you need to transfer. The time will be dependent on how you're transferring the data, i.e. what app is being used to to the transfer and how the two Macs are connected. In any case don't connect them via WiFi. Connect them by cable, preferably Ethernet.


So give us more info on the size of data and how it's to be transferred and we can estimate a time, emphasis on estimate.
