Over a network.
Not WiFi though!
You could hook a single network cable between them. Give each machine an IP address, share the folder that you are copying to or copying from (your choice) and drag the files over. Or you could use RoboCopy to potentially do it faster.
Or just get a 2tb usb external drive and use that, it could be slower or perhaps faster than the network option depending on many factors but also more expensive as you have to buy the drive!
I’m the opposite. I find it particularly inconvenient not having discs to simply pop on a player.
I use a couple of streaming services but those really are just a video on demand channel.
I have a few mp3’s here and there, lol many on dvd-r but finding those when they are scattered about then writing to a spare flash drive just to stick in the player to watch is just a bit inconvenient.
Use a hdd? Well I could if I had the time to collect everything together and find a hdd and a caddy but I simply cba.
Basically the primary source for video and audio in my hoard is off optical media itself. And I’m adding more and more, so will be getting a couple of Billy shelves in the new year.
No, poster is incorrect. It is bad design on Microsofts part to have such an issue.
If something cant be save, you, the user, should be notified at the time you click save. It ain’t rocket science and is fundamentally basic software design that should have been flagged up during the QA process that Microsoft no longer bother to employ.

Its also a bad mark on the testing applied to office 365. The lack of basic testing from Microsoft in recent years drives me up the effing wall.
What should have happened is they should have tested PowerPoints reaction to saving a file to:
- Full local storage.
- Full remote storage.
- And any other file operation exceptions such as permission errors.
If your hdd had filled up I bed PowerPoint would have had something to say. It probably has no idea that the cloud storage was full, because someone didn’t test for that and highlight that the cloud storage back end (onedrive) was probably never given such functionality.
As a former software tester I would have not signed off PowerPoint nor onedrive until such a quality assurance UX flaw had been addressed. That’s what I used to do, I certainly affected the design of the software as I found the design flawed many times, not just unable to handle an error but also to have the wrong or non existent feedback to users.
When I worked in a company that used 365 (dont any more thankfully) onedrive was a pain in the effing IT support buttocks. It was constantly getting “stuck”, constantly and silently failing to sync conflicting files, its UI lacked the basic usability features needed to let the user detect this and deal with it without me getting involved.
No
But storage is technically memory.
When I get around to it I will have certain images printed out properly on optical paper.
This is the same technology used to make prints from negatives, the paper can be exposed to the negative or a digital image can be printed to it using a laser.
Fuji and Ilford offer it as archival type of printing. I’m sure many others do.
People wanting to print at home using inkjet can use archival paper and inks but I gave up inkjet years ago because unless you actually print then it just dries up.
I have a colour laser instead but I’d not consider that photo quality.
If you want the best archival quality look for companies that use Fuji’s Crystal Archive paper. Same kind of stuff used with negatives thus same multi-decade stability.
r/analogcommunity is a good place to start
They might talk about DSLR scanning but unless you have such a camera and are interested in trying it you are best just sticking to a photo scanner plus software that will scan multiple slides at once.
They will probably recommend an Epson scanner but Canon make them also.
The software usually is supplied with the scanner and usually will scan several slides or negatives at once.
Because you have so many to scan you dont need to scan at too great a detail. The resolution of scanners are usually hyped up on the packaging, if you scan at a lower resolution to speed up scanning.
Prints can be scanned at 600 or 1200dpi as they are already quite large. Negatives and slides can be scanned at 2400 or 4800dpi, which will give decent speed plus a finer detail to allow them to be enlarged.
Over 4800dpi is not usually worth it as the hardware resolution of the scanner usually tops out at 4800 or 9600dpi.
You’ve changed the sata cables and tried a different port yes?
