    Cable to transfer files

    OMG. I have never met anyone who actually bought one of those file transfer things.



    Firewire will do the same as USB, but faster, so will a cheap crossover cable. I can wlak you through the steps of moving data so you will not miss a beat.




    Anything more than $10 to buy a cable is too much.

  3. Cable to transfer files

    Hey guys, my situation is that I want to transfer media files etc. from my old computer to my new computer, and I have looked into getting a external harddrive as a medium to transfer from old to new
    (since I was going to get one anyways).

    Well on reading reviews, it is too damn expensive imo for something that is quite unreliable!

    I'm looked around, and Im confused on what cable I need to connect both computers directly
    e.g can you do USB - USB, or do I need something else (I think I read about a null serial modem cable)
    What damn cable should I purchase?

    Both computers are XP so I should be able to use the file transfer wizard but im stuck on the important bit *Stick Out Tongue is it possible to transfer files between computers using a usb cable? :p

    Thanx for any help in advance *Smile is it possible to transfer files between computers using a usb cable? :)

    Cable to transfer files

    if you try on usb it will take a week to do it, its slow as chit.

    plug eithernet cable into each computer to link them and it will be able to transfer pretty fast but using firewire is the fastest way.
