BBloke Posted April 14, 2008 Report Share Posted April 14, 2008 Cat 5E cross-over cable (provided you have both machine with an ethernet card). If you havent got any ethernet cards I've got a hand full you can have If you have USB active on the ME machine then you could always use a USB stick or USB hard drive.

BBloke Posted April 14, 2008 Report Share Posted April 14, 2008 Using network cards and a crossover cable (negates then need for a network switch) would allow you to transfer data as you would through a home or office network. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
