Transfer-time estimation method
The tool converts the entered GB amount to megabits using 1 GB = 1,024 MB and 8 bits per byte, divides it by bandwidth multiplied by the selected efficiency, then formats the resulting seconds as a duration.
Example check: 25 GB over 100 Mbps at 85% efficiency uses 85 Mbps effective bandwidth, so the estimate is (25 × 8 × 1,024) ÷ 85 ≈ 2,409 seconds, or about 40 minutes.
