Transferring Data...

[TomKease]

i have a new iMac and an older MacBook...

i wanna transfer about 70 gigs of info to the macbook...from the iMac..

only problem is the iMac has a newer firewire port and the macbook has an older firewire port.

transferring wirelessly through aim will take way too long....

can i connect through the ethernet ports or maybe usb ports...?

not sure just thinking of ideas...

thanks...

if by 'older' firewire you mean firewire 400 and by 'newer ' you mean firewire 800, there are conversion cables for$15 or so.

9 pin to 6 pin (big FW400 plug)
or 9 to 4 (small FW400 plug).
