Yes, that is normal, if you have a large amount of files / big files. A faster way is to use a "Laplink" cable. It connects the same way, only with the parallel "printer" ports. This is much faster.
Even faster would be to just burn the files to a CD, transfer them over a network connection, or even e-mail them to yourself. But I'm guessing those options are not available yo you.

Use a lan cable between them, it will need to be a cross-over cable. I hope you are not trying to copy the whole system over, this will do no good at all. Only the data files can be copied correctly.
