need to move video short [up to 15min.]
video files between school and my home.
I thought to use portable HD that I can also edit on.
My system runs on XP pro and have a system disk and 500G data disk[no raid]


Is it the best solution and what functions do I need on the HD ?
Can you please recommend a specific unit ???

depends what protocol you are bound to use. USB 2.0 im guessing is what both computers have... last i checked, Micro Center was selling 8Gb flash drives for 32$ or if you need more room get a portable HD

what other options are you thinking and what kind of money do you have to spend for this
