I’ve replaced my old laptop with a new one and I have over 350GB worth of data to move over, moving all of it to an external drive and then moving them to the new laptop doesn’t seem efficient and it seems like it’s gonna take forever

I know there are some special cables that can do that but I don’t wanna waste money on something that I’m only gonna use once every 5 years at most.

    If you already have a router no need to buy other cables/hardware. It’s a piece of tech specifically design for networking. Just share the drive on the network and go at it. I think average wifi speed is like 1Gbps.
