Hi all,
just wondering if there's any specific hardware or software that is needed to connect the two up?
Thank you.
John

Three ways.
1: Simple and easy, link both through a RJ45 patch cable and setup a network.
2: Use an extirnal hard drive or flash memory, and transfer files.
3: If you can find a USB Male/Male cable use that.
My prefered would be 2, as you will get a backup of the file, however 1 is probibly the cheapest.
Cheers

Hi Cameron,
I'm not sure how to set up a network just using ethernet cables or rj45, would you be able to post a guide on how to do that?
