SOLVED Best way to import data into Scale 21.04?

[derWalter]

My data is currently sitting on a qnap system, I care most about the timestamps.

How could I preserve those? What would be the optimal OS / protocol combination?

I ll take it from here, thx (totally forgot about this possibility on QNAP)

I ended up copying the data using a win10 machine connecting to both systems via SMB, as this also preserves the original timestamps and metadata.

For a home user situation, that was the the most easy way of doing it and worked like a charm (maxed out disc or network speed, which ever hit first) :)
