- FTP Server
- Removeable media

two issues: the two computers are not networked together, and it's about 10 GB of data...

CDs, Memory sticks, DVDs or how about setting up a network... cheap, efficient

This is a neat toy that can also get the job done and you don’t even have to have a network or external storage. But I haven’t bought one of these yet to try out yet but looks like it’ll work pretty well.
