# How do I see how far a transfer has got and how long is left?

Select the transfer in Data Transfers. The detail pane shows:

- a progress bar with the amount transferred out of the total,
- files transferred out of the total (or pieces, for a large download),
- the current speed and estimated time remaining,
- the file being transferred right now,
- for a large download, each stream fetching a piece.

The row in the list also has a small progress bar with the amount and speed, so you can watch several at a glance.
