File transfer between Amigas
« on: May 21, 2011, 04:26:52 PM »
Afternoon all :-)

I have an Amiga 500 with HDD that I'd like to link to my Amiga 2000 - I have a null modem cable that I've used for linkup games before. Is there a piece of software that would let me use the link to transfer files?

The A2000 has Ethernet/USB so it'd be handy to get all the data from the A500 for backup and a link of some kind would be much easier than lots of floppy disks!

Thanks in Advance

Robert.

Edit: I forgot to mention, the A500 has Workbench 1.3, the A2000 has Workbench 3.9.

Thanks everyone for your suggestions! Speed isn't really an issue as anything will be quicker than copying files bit by bit on floppy disk. In Any case, the Amiga 500 only has a 40mb drive so there's not huge amounts of data to copy. Once it's on the A2000 I can get it onto a USB Stick or online :-)
