    Hey hellosigit, welcome aboard to Dropbox Community!
     
    What I would suggest is, you create a new shared folder that is empty and share the folder between both accounts. Then move the files in smaller batches to that folder, let it finish moving and then repeat until you are done with all the files. When all files have moved change ownership of the shared folder to the Enterprise account. Lastly, log in to the other Business account and remove the original plan.
     
    Let me know if this helps! :)
