There is no "best way" to move a lot of files. There are simply too many parameters involved, and nobody wants to commit to an answer where nothing is known about the setup (and costs you nothing). Is the new server on the other side of a slow WAN link? Is it a different OS? What OS are the servers running anyway? Are you comfortable with rsync and all its incantations? File rights? Re-indexing? Backups?
We've moved message stores, single domains and single users from one physical storage to another, but it can take quite some time and is sort-of a balancing act unless the new server just sits in the same rack on the same subnet runnign the same OS.
