WHAT IS DATA TRANSFER
Copying or moving data from one place to another, typically via some kind of
network or local data connection .
WAYS OF DATA TRANSFER
USB CABLEFLASH DRIVELANWi-Fi
USB CABLE
Connecting two computers with a specific type of Universal Serial Bus (USB) cable allows you to
transfer files or other data directly from one machine to another.
Transfer speeds are limited to the speed of the USB ports in both
machines and you will get faster throughput if your computers
were manufactured after the first quarter of 2010. USB 3.0 is many
times faster than the older specifications, but all versions of
USB will work for creating a simple peer-to-peer network.
FLASH DRIVEThe most common use of flash drives is to
transport and store personal files, such as documents, pictures and videos.
Individuals also store medical information on flash drives for emergencies and USB
flash drives use the USB mass storage standard, supported natively by modern
operating systems such as Windows, Linux, OS X and other Unix-like systems, as well as many BIOS boot ROMs. USB drives with USB 2.0 support can store
more data and transfer faster than much larger optical disc drives like CD-RW or
DVD-RW drives and can be read by many other systems such as the Xbox 360, PlayStation 3, DVD players and in a
number of handheld devices such as smart phones and tablet computers,
though the electronically similar SD card is better suited for those devices. disaster

LAN [LOCAL AREA NETWORK]
A local-area network (LAN) connects the computer hardware in a localized area such as an office or home.
Typically, LANs use wired connections to link the computers to
each other and to a variety of peripheral devices such as printers.
Devices connected to a LAN are able to access data from any machine that's connected to the network. LANs transfer data at much faster
rates than telephone line connections, but are limited in the
number of computers they can support and the distances they can
transfer data.
Wi-Fi [WIRELESS-FIDELITY]
Wi-Fi also allows communications directly from one computer to another without an access
point intermediary. This is called ad hoc Wi-Fi transmission. This wireless ad hoc network mode has proven popular with multiplayer
handheld game consoles, such as the Nintendo DS, PlayStation Portable, digital cameras, and other consumer electronics devices. Some devices can also share their
Internet connection using ad hoc, becoming hotspots or "virtual routers". Similarly, the Wi-
Fi Alliance promotes the specification Wi-Fi Direct for file transfers and media sharing
through a new discovery- and security-methodology. Wi-Fi Direct launched in October 2010.Another mode of direct
communication over Wi-Fi is Tunneled Direct Link Setup (TDLS), which enables two devices on the same Wi-Fi network to communicate
directly, instead of via the access point.
