It's an IMPOSSIBLE process if you don't have the software on a machine. Bandwidth should be of no concern to a site this size, if you are on a hosting package where it is then you are on the wrong package. Cricky, even our site, which is on it's own server, has some ridiculous figure like 2000GB a month ! Any decent higher package would be a fixed speed, unlimited bandwidth.
