How do you transfer more than 1 terabyte from PC to PC?
How do you transfer more than 1 terabyte from PC to PC?
In the past, I have used a USB to transfer a few video files from one computer to another. This time I have over 1 terabyte of movies and shows I'd like to transfer. What is the best method?
I know it will take a very long time

Fastest "normal" way would be write it to a USB 3 drive on machine 1, read from drive later on machine 2. An SSD would be best. Even with having to do the write and read in two phases, I'd still expect it to be faster than a 1G network.
(Less normal ways would be things like Thundrerbolt SSDs, 10G or 40G ethernet for direct transfer, etc. But if you have that kind of tech already in place, then you're not asking. ;)
